The lymphatic system is a network of vessels that carry fluid, nutrients and waste products throughout the body. It’s part of our immune system, which protects us from disease and infection. The lymphatic system has two main functions: It transports fluid from tissues back into the bloodstream so it can be filtered by the kidneys.
This massage technique uses gentle strokes and deep compressions to move lymphatic fluid away from congested areas of the body. This helps reduce pain and swelling in muscles, tendons and joints.
