Originally from Brazil, Luciana Andrus has dedicated her life to helping others feel supported and cared for. Caring for her father after a stroke sparked a lifelong passion for wellness and, ultimately, a career in massage therapy and post-operative lymphatic care.

She holds a bachelor's degree in English Education and Literature from PUC-Campinas in Brazil and completed her formal massage therapy training at the National Holistic Institute. She is certified by the California Massage Therapy Council.

With 9+ years serving the Bay Area, Luciana specializes in post-operative lymphatic care, Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage for wellness, prenatal and postpartum lymphatic drainage, and Brazilian Body Contouring.

Her continued education has taken her to Brazil, Colombia, and training programs in the United States. In Colombia, she trained with plastic surgeon Dr. Alfredo Hoyos and his Total Definer team.

Luciana's commitment extends beyond serving clients to educating fellow massage professionals. After two years of focused preparation and dedication, her educational organization, Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage Techniques by Luciana Andrus, earned recognition as an NCBTMB Approved Continuing Education Provider.

She is also the creator of Post-Op Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage by Luciana Andrus® and Brazilian Lymphatic Techniques by Luciana Andrus®, federally registered service marks representing her clinical services and educational programs, respectively.

Luciana leads her team and teaches with an emphasis on anatomy, attentive communication, and respect for each person's recovery journey. Her compassionate approach reflects a simple commitment: helping people feel heard, supported, and cared for.
