Welcome to I Am Mine Therapies - Facials and Lymphatic Massage in Reading

About Us

Welcome to I Am Mine Therapies. My name is Nicola Kenworthy. I look forward to meeting you and helping you on your journey to better health and wellness.

View of a tiny section of our lymphatic system, which helps with fluid balance and fighting disease.

Lymphatic massage (MLD), stimulates the lymphatic system, which is an essential part of your immune system and removes toxins from the body. It is also deeply relaxing.

For those of you who are suffering with an impairment of the lymphatic system, a combination therapy of compression (this may be bandaging and/or compression garments), massage, skincare and exercise is also available

The power of human touch to alleviate pain, move fluid and soothe the soul.

With qualifications up to the highest level in the Vodder method of MLD, and regular updates in the Foeldi method, I am well qualified to deal with any issues you may have. I also have over 4 years experience working at the Oxford Lymphoedema Clinic, alongside the nurses there.

I have an up to date membership of MLDuk, which is the governing body for MLD. www.mlduk.org.uk

MSTR McLoughlin Scar Tissue Release

Alongside my MDL/Lymphatic massage qualifcations, I am also qualified in McLoughlin Scar Tissue Release (MSTR).

Scars are far more than what you can see on the outside of the body. They can cause many problems. Having your scars treated, will mostly improve the appearance and feel of the scar. It may also help to relieve other issues, some of which you may never have associated with that particular scar.

Why do people try lymphatic massage?.

Gut Health

Many people come to see me with gut issues ie. IBS, chrons etc. MLD can stimulate peristalsis (bowel movement) and calm inflammation too.

Lipoedema

Gut Health

Lipoedema is a chronic condition where excess fat is accumulated on the legs. To read about this condition in more detail, please look at Lipoedema UK's website here https://www.lipoedema.co.uk/

MLD helps to remove fluid from the legs and keeps the lymphatics moving, which is particularly important in the case of lipoedema.

Post Surgery, Fractures and Sprains

Lymphoedema

Lymphoedema is caused by a sluggish or damaged lymphatic system. This can be a problem from birth (Primary) that can manifest at any time in your life or it can be post surgery, where lymph nodes are damaged or removed. This often happens post cancer.

The treatment is detailed below under MLD/DLT.

Post Surgery, Fractures and Sprains

MLD helps to speed healing and reduce swelling post any surgery, fracture, ligament tear or sprain. This helps people to recover more quickly and regain their mobility faster.

Post plastic surgery, it will also help prevent fibrosis (hardening of the tissues).

Post Surgery, Fractures and Sprains

Many sufferers report an improvement in their condition post MLD. The gentleness of this form of massage means the immune system can be regulated without any reaction caused by excessive pressure.

Testimonials

Jemma M

I went to see Nicola as I was feeling incredibly stressed and I left feeling extremely relaxed and uplifted. The massage was very different to any massage I'd had before (much more gentle), yet I still felt a huge amount of tension release, particularly around my neck an shoulders. I love the fact that this massage not only made me feel better for what I went in for, but also was working on my immune system too - just what you need before coming into the winter season. Thank you Nicola

Kate F

As Nicola is trained in several schools of MLD she has a great perspective on lymphatic drainage. Her MLD was key in my recovery from lymph sparing liposuction for lipoedema. She knew just how to deal with bruising and small areas of hardness melted away after her treatment.

I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone with lipoedema or lymphoedema for skilled and relaxing lymphatic drainage.

Nancy T

I have fibromyalgia and lipoedema and have regular massages with Nicola. They really help to manage the pain associated with both conditions and are also incredibly relaxing. I have also had a lymphatic detox facial and it was the best facial I have ever had. The massage was amazing.
Nicola is very passionate and knowledgeable about the benefits of lymphatic drainage massage and also very caring.

Kim B

I have recently received a wonderful Lymphatic Detox Facial from Nicola and feel compelled to write and say just how amazing it was! The massage was so gentle but so powerful, I could feel trapped liquid moving out of my sinuses and facial cavities. I felt so relaxed. The skincare Nicola used smelled divine and my skin felt so amazingly soft and moisturised right through to the following morning which I was amazed as I had the facial at 3pm! I highly recommend this facial as a treatment and as a present to yourself.

Sarah F

I have had two Lymphatic Detox Facials from Nicola and highly recommend this wonderful treatment. It is so relaxing. The skincare products smell lovely. I noticed that the fine lines around my eyes completely disappeared a couple of hours after the facial. The next day, my skin felt hydrated and very soft.
I intend to treat myself to these facials on a monthly basis. Thank you Nicola.

Susie S

This is the first time I have tried one of the Lymphatic detox facials and it was amazing. After a hectic week of traveling and late nights my face felt very puffy. I actually felt the fluid draining at the back of my throat during the facial.Its completely different from all other treatments. My skin felt amazing and I have been complemented how well and rested I look. Nicola is very knowledgeable and has a great understating of the lymph anatomy and how you can get the best benefits. I will be re-booking:-)
