Caring for your breasts, supporting your lymphatic system

Your breasts have a network of lymphatic vessels that helps move excess fluid from the tissues and supports immune function. This system deserves care and attention—particularly when preparing for or recovering from breast surgery.

At Breast Wellness Studio, my approach brings together breast health education, gentle lymphatic techniques and personalised support to help you feel more comfortable, informed and connected with your body. 💗

🌸 Before surgery
We can make space for your questions, discuss your breast care needs and plan supportive care around your upcoming procedure.

🌸 After surgery
Whether you’ve had a lumpectomy, mastectomy, reconstruction or reduction, your body needs time and individual attention. Gentle lymphatic and scar care may form part of your recovery plan, supporting comfort and helping manage swelling and scar tightness where appropriate.

Care adapts to you—your surgery, your healing and how you feel along the way.

From preparing for surgery to finding your confidence afterwards, you deserve to feel supported.

With care,
Tracey 💗

💗 Hello October… and hello breast check reminder. 💗

It’s the 1st of the month, so take a few quiet minutes today to check in with your breasts.

✨ Look
✨ Feel
✨ Notice

Know what’s normal for you, and pay attention to anything that feels new or different.

If you notice a new lump, skin or ni**le changes, unusual discharge, swelling, or persistent pain, please have it checked by your healthcare professional.

October is also Breast Cancer Awareness Month — a perfect reminder that breast awareness starts with knowing your own body. 🌸

Save this post, set your monthly reminder, and send it to someone you love. 💕

Some days through cancer treatment, you simply don’t feel like yourself.

Your energy can be low, your body is changing, your hair may be gone, and even getting dressed can feel like an effort. I found that the smallest things made a surprisingly big difference for me — a beautiful turban, a favourite pair of earrings, a little colour, and something that helped me feel a bit more like me again.

It’s not about pretending every day is a good day. It’s about finding those tiny moments of comfort, confidence and joy when you can. 💗

I’ve loved having different turbans to choose from throughout my own journey, and we now have a lovely selection available for sale at the clinic for women going through treatment, hair loss, or simply wanting something soft and comfortable to wear.

Sometimes self-care isn’t a grand wellness routine. Sometimes it’s putting on the earrings, choosing the pretty turban and saying, “Today, I’m showing up as me.”

Pop into the clinic to have a look at the range, or send me a message if you’d like more information. 🌸 also available That Outlet Burpengary Donna Linton i post at random times

💕 FIRST OF THE MONTH = BREAST SELF-CHECK REMINDER 💕

A new month is your gentle little nudge to pause, check in, and connect with your body.

Did you know that breast tissue is made up mainly of glandular and fatty tissue? Because there is no muscle inside the breast itself, it relies heavily on movement, circulation, and lymphatic flow to stay healthy and supported.

When we spend long hours sitting, wear tight bras, or don’t move our upper body very much, fluid in the chest area can become sluggish.

Over time, lymphatic congestion may contribute to:
✨ tender or swollen breasts
✨ increased inflammation
✨ a build-up of excess hormones such as oestrogen
✨ cystic or fibrous breast tissue
✨ general heaviness and discomfort

The good news?
Supporting healthy lymph flow is one of the simplest and most loving things you can do for your breast health. 💚

This month, take a few minutes to:

🌿 Do your breast self-check
Know what is normal for your breasts and underarm area. Look and feel for any changes in shape, skin, tenderness, swelling, thickening, or unusual lumps.

🌿 Try gentle lymphatic breast massage
Using soft circular motions around the chest, collarbone, and underarms, lightly stroke toward the underarms and toward the heart.

🌿 Add dry brushing to your morning routine
Before your shower, use a natural bristle brush and sweep lightly toward the heart, paying attention to the chest, neck, and underarm area.

Just 2 minutes a day can become a beautiful act of self-care and body awareness.

📌 Save this as your monthly reminder.
📞 If you are experiencing breast tenderness, swelling, congestion, or would like personalised support, book a Manual Lymphatic Drainage session with Tracey at Love Healthy Livin’ / Breast Wellness Studio.

Remember: self-checks are about knowing your normal and noticing changes early. They are a supportive habit and do not replace your regular medical screening. 💗

🌸 A LITTLE BEHIND THE SCENES AT THE BREAST WELLNESS STUDIO 🌸

This is me doing something I’m incredibly passionate about — helping women become more informed and proactive about their breast health. 💗

At the Breast Wellness Studio, thermal breast imaging is just one part of what I do.

Using a specialised thermal camera, we capture temperature and vascular patterns across the breasts and surrounding areas. The process is non-invasive, radiation-free, contact-free and involves no breast compression.

But I don’t believe breast health should ever be looked at in isolation.

My approach brings together my work as a naturopath, lymphatic practitioner and breast wellness practitioner to consider the whole woman — including lymphatic health, hormones, nutrition, inflammation, lifestyle, breast changes and individual health history.

I also work with women who need additional support with:

🌿 Breast and lymphatic massage
🌿 Breast tenderness, heaviness and congestion
🌿 Lymphatic health and education
🌿 Naturopathic breast wellness
🌿 Preparing for and recovering from breast surgery
🌿 Scar and mastectomy care
🌿 Support during and after breast cancer treatment
🌿 Learning how to know and care for their breasts

For me, the greatest benefit is knowledge.

Knowing your normal. Understanding your body. Recognising when something has changed. And knowing when it is time to seek further medical investigation.

Breast wellness isn’t about fear. It’s about awareness, education and taking care of yourself through every stage of life.

LET’S TALK BREAST HEALTH…

When was the last time you really paid attention to how your breasts feel?

Not just checking for a lump — but noticing the little changes.

🌿 Tenderness
🌿 Heaviness or fullness
🌿 Swelling around the breast or underarm
🌿 Changes after surgery or radiation
🌿 Tightness through the chest
🌿 Scar sensitivity
🌿 Fluid retention
🌿 Changes in shape, skin or sensation
🌿 Or simply feeling like something is “different”

Breast wellness is about so much more than waiting until something is wrong.

At the Breast Wellness Studio, I want women to feel comfortable talking about their breasts, understanding their bodies and asking questions they may not always know who to ask.

So today, I’d love to hear from you:

What is ONE thing you wish women were taught earlier about breast health?

It might be something you learned through your own experience, something nobody ever explained properly, or something you think every woman should know.

Pop it in the comments below. 💕 or message me.
Your answer might be exactly what another woman needs to hear today.

And remember — breast awareness isn’t about fear.

It’s about knowing your normal, noticing change, and feeling confident enough to speak up.

🌸 It’s the 1st of the Month – Time for Your Breast Check! 🌸

The best person to notice a change in your breasts is you.

Take just a few minutes today to get to know what feels normal for your body. Check for any new lumps, swelling, skin changes, ni**le changes, or anything that simply doesn’t feel right.

Remember, not every breast cancer starts as a lump. Knowing your own body means you’re more likely to notice subtle changes early.

💗 Check.
💗 Feel.
💗 Know your normal.

Your health is worth a few minutes each month.

🌸 My Skincare Routine

Everyone’s skin is different, but this routine has helped me.

💜 Morning – StrataXRT
This was recommended by my radiation team to be applied twice a day. I personally chose to use it each morning. It needs to be applied at least 2 hours before treatment, and I found it created a protective silicone layer over my skin.

🤍 During the day – MooGoo Natural Fast Hydrating Lotion
As the day went on, my skin became drier and tighter. MooGoo absorbed beautifully without leaving my skin feeling greasy, so it was easy to reapply throughout the day whenever I needed extra hydration.

🌿 Chelsey Jean Facebiotics
Chelsey Jean Lymphatics
Although it’s marketed as a face product, I found it incredibly soothing on my treated breast. The cooling peppermint gave a refreshing sensation, especially when my skin felt warm, and I even found the peppermint aroma helped settle my nausea. It became one of those unexpected little comforts during treatment.

💙 Night – Aquaphor Healing Ointment
Before bed I applied a generous layer of Aquaphor. Because it’s much thicker, it helped lock in moisture overnight and was wonderfully soothing when my skin became warmer and more sensitive.

Remember your skin reaction doesn’t necessarily stop when radiation finishes. In fact, the redness, warmth and irritation can continue to develop and often peak around 1–2 weeks after your final treatment. That’s because radiation is still affecting the skin and the underlying tissues as your body begins the repair process.

Radiation doesn’t only affect the surface of the skin. It can also temporarily affect the connective tissue (fascia), tiny blood vessels and lymphatic vessels, which is why many people experience: Warmth
Redness
Tightness
Swelling
Tenderness
Reduced flexibility through the breast and chest wall

For me, continuing my skincare routine even after treatment finished has become just as important as what I did during treatment.
