National Lymphatic Centers - Downers Grove

I am going to cry. I was so lucky to get a last minute lymph massage from NLC on New Year’s Eve. No one would return my calls at any massage center except for them and I am so grateful they did. I truly felt so taken care of by Abdu who is also an MD from Jordan. He was so knowledgeable and kind and explain everything to me in depth about the differences. I felt so relaxed after and I plan to go back. A lymph massage is completely different than a standard massage but 100% better. Great location easy parking lot around the corner. I cannot recommend NLC and Abdu enough. Do not hesitate! You are worth it. Amazing customer service and extremely reasonable pricing. I love the DG location but haven’t tried the other ones.

Sharon and her staff are Amazing!

Im such a fan of this amazing center! Sharon and all the therapists are absolutely amazing. They are skilled, knowledgeable, and their technique is the most effective I’ve ever experienced! I’m a cancer survivor and live with lymphedema and their services have been life changing! I highly recommend!

I highly recommend the lymphatic massage! Sharon is amazing at making my post surgery bloating go away. The lymphatic massage is relaxing & feels great, but the results are excellent! My body feels far less bloated & lumpy after massage. You can see & feel a difference after one visit!

I was amazed at seeing benefits of lymphatic massage after my second visit. My lymph edema was secondary to venous insufficiency which was taken care of by a proceedure called venaseal by my vein specialist a few months ago. Thank you for helping me move forward to wellness as the fluid retention appears to be reversing!

Just had my first massage with Sharon. It was wonderful! So relaxing. Sharon was great, liked how she explained things she was doing and how it will help my body. This was the first massage I had in about 35 years. Will not wait that long before getting another one! And will recommend my husband get one too. If you are thinking about gettIng this done, don’t wait! You won’t regret it!

Best place for lymphatic drainage around. You get a relaxing spa experience paired with medical expertise. Sharon and Abdu are both amazing!

Very professional and informative experience. I appreciated her taking the time to explain how the lymphatic system works and why these treatments are so beneficial.

Sharon and National Lymphatic Center have been life changing for me and my autoimmune issues. I was in rough shape when I first saw Sharon, with about 45 lbs of extra fluid after a recent hospitalization. After only a handful of visits she helped to remove majority of it (confirmed by the scale and a follow up ultrasound with my Dr.). She has put me on an amazing path to maintaining my health and quality of life and I cannot thank her enough for helping to make me comfortable in my body again. She is extremely knowledgeable, her techniques work and she has gone above and beyond for me since I walked through the door.

This was such an awesome experience! I have been sick for a while and this lymphatic massage really helped my body/immune system work a bit better. At one point, one side of my neck was noticeably puffier than the other side that had gotten massaged already, and by the end, there was a noticeable difference on both sides. The staff was super sweet and I truly appreciated this experience!

As an active person, it is critical for the Lymphatic system to work at peak efficiency to remove unwanted cellular bi-products. NLC is excellent at keeping the systems up and running. The muscular and back relief I get is immeasurable ! I couldn’t keep up the exercise regimen I follow without them.

I had been to NLC years ago and they helped my body unclog my lymphatic system. I was told that my swelling after almost 2 years of surgery was due to a clogged lymphatic system so I reached out to NLC again. I had never met Sharon. She is such a blessing! I have never felt so pampered! And after my session, the usually tight ring on my finger almost fell off because of the reduced inflammation in my body!. Thank you Sharon. Can’t wait to return!

Anywhere on my head I touched there was tension, it was a pain that I lived with for the last 20 years. I assumed it was part of aging. Dr. Abdu got rid of the pressure in my face, head, and neck. It was gentle and effective. I can now breathe through my nose with ease even though it’s winter. I felt better with my movement definitely less achy and tired. Dr. Abdu is wonderful therapist who has healing hands.

There is no one else I would trust for my post surgical lymph massage other than Sharon! I look and feel so much better already after 2 appointments. My stomach is so much flatter and less “puffy”. My arms and legs feel much lighter. Sharon is the best and I have been going to her for at least 7 years now. She provides top notch care.

Review from Jan Ruthe. I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a wonderful lymphatic massage at National Lymphatic Centers, and I can't express enough how beneficial and relaxing it was. Sharon Vogel exhibited a high level of expertise and professionalism throughout the session. She took the time to understand my needs and explain the process. The lymphatic massage itself was gentle yet incredibly effective. Her skilled hands moved in precise, rhythmic motions, targeting areas and promoting optimal lymphatic flow. I could feel tension and built-up fluid being released, leaving me with a lightness and renewed energy. What stood out to me was the therapist's attention to detail and focus on promoting overall well-being. I highly recommend this lymphatic massage to anyone seeking a therapeutic and blissful experience. The combination of a skilled therapist, calming atmosphere, and the positive impact on my overall well-being made it an exceptional and unforgettable treatment. You won't go wrong making an appointment with Sharon Vogel at National Lymphatic Centers. She is awesome!!

NLC has been a great find. My lymphatic system was very firm and not moving. I have been going to NLC for over a year and it keeps getting better. There is continuous improvement. Abdu is a miracle worker.

My massage experience with Sharon was no less than Divine. I came in with full body pain and an especially painful shoulder and Sharon was able to bring me relief in a 70min session. Days later I continue to be impressed as I am still improving. Sharon did so much more than give me temporary relief she gave me long lasting relief and sparked my body’s innate wisdom to continue the healing on its own. Thank you Sharon.

I have a sluggish lymphatic system. The first time I went to NLC, I was swollen with water retention. The results were immediate. You could see and feel a difference on the one side of my body Sharon had worked on versus the other. I couldn’t believe it!! NLC is cozy and everyone is always so welcoming. I’ve tried out other places, even in other states, and nothing compares to NLC or Sharon’s lymphatic drainage massages. She knows EVERYTHING about the lymphatic system and is a wealth of knowledge. I’ve learned so much about the lymphatic system from her. I love going to NLC, and you will too!

I struggle with swelling of reactive lymph nodes in my neck. After much research I decided to visit Sharon Vogel at National Lymphatic Centers. I have visited the Hinsdale and Downers Grove locations. Both locations are very nice and welcoming with a wonderful healing vibe. Sharon is absolutely amazing. She provides a fantastic drainage session with massage and other methods to get your lymphatic system flowing. She teaches you what to do at home. The results are unbelievable. My swelling was visibly reduced after the first visit. The bags under my eyes are unexpectedly gone. She’s literally magic. She knows her stuff. I am so thankful that I found her!

INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE! Got my first Manual Lymphatic Massage by Abdul, and I am already planning on coming back. For THREE MONTHS I was suffering from inflammation. Seeing 5 different medical professionals, various bloodwork and imaging none of these "specialists" could figure out what's wrong. Within 24 hours of receiving my lymphatic massage, 50%+ of my symptoms were alleviated! I am so grateful for giving this method, and NLC a chance. If you're not sure if this is for you, I'm telling you give this place and a lymphatic massage a chance! The body is so powerful at self healing if you steer it the right way!

Sharon and Dani came to our location to do a presentation for 15 industry professionals. I can't thank them enough for their time, expertise, and knowledge. The class was so fun, engaging and very professional.

I had a great experience getting a lymphatic massage & facial by Dani. She did a great job and was very friendly.

Such a great vibe from the moment you walk in. Sharon Vogel is absolutely amazing, and I cannot recommend her enough!! After suffering from BII (Breast Implant Illness) and eventually having explant surgery, I knew I needed to detox and Therapists who have trained in the area of lymphatic massage would be the only ones that would be able to help with my healing! I went to a few other massage therapists thinking longer & deeper tissue massages would work, I soon found out the STYLE of massage (lymphatic) was the ONLY way to truly heal. You won't be disappointed and a true investment for your overall health!

I decided to take a chance on the Lymphatic Drainage Massage after many failed attempts at addressing concerns with my legs. Doctor after doctor, test after test, there were never any answers as to why my left leg was larger than my right. I have just finished my 5th session with Abdu, and my expectations were exceeded after session one. Not only have my legs improved aesthetically, but my swelling has lessened and is barely visible. Equally as important, my sleep has not been interrupted by restless leg symptoms or leg cramps. Abdu has been amazing! From the minute I step into the room, he seeks to understand my concerns. He is professional and a master of his trade. Working with Abdu has been a partnership; working together on a plan to achieve the outcomes I am looking for. My only regret is that I didn't know about this sooner. This has been a game changer for me. Thank you Abdu!

Abdu is absolutely fantastic. He always has a smile on his face, is so knowledgeable and has a great personality. I always feel welcomed when coming in to get a Lymphatic Drainage massage.

I’ve been working with Abdu to help with my post op edema. He has been amazing! He’s so supportive, maintains respectful boundaries, keeps clear communication and is very attentive to the patients needs. I will admit the price is high, but, so worth it!!

Dr. Abdul is kind and welcoming. His genuine passion for his job exudes from his smile, professionalism and angelic hands that heal you with love. I am sold as a client and will continue to refer many to experience healing with him. Thank you

Sharon did my massage my first day Sharon is a through professional I went in on Tuesday for my first lymphatic massage post op .after that I felt so great ..before giong in that morning I could feel the heaviness and the fluids all over my back arms and legs after the massages I second the whole day and night urinating .this has really help me recover smoothly .I would highly recommend coming here .I loved it and I could be getting more lymphatic massages

Wow! Goodbye cellulite! The Venus legacy treatments…you won’t believe it until you try it. Worth every penny…the therapist YAZMINA was so wonderful 🙂🙂

I went to Sharon for lymphatic drainage after surgery to reduce swelling and hopefully speed up the healing process. I have had only one treatment and am stunned at the reduced swelling I already have had. It is well worth her fee. During the treatment, she explains everything she is doing and why. She gives helpful tips on things you can do at home. I know they specialize in surgical patients, but she might be stuck with me as a client even after I have recovered.
