More about Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Lymphatic drainage is accomplished by gentle, rhythmic massage following the direction of lymph flow. Lymph is the plasma-like fluid that maintains the body's fluid balance and removes bacteria. Mild stretching movements are used on the walls of lymph collectors to redirect the flow away from blocked areas into other vessels that drain into the veins. Lymphatic drainage is said to beneficially effect the nervous, immune and muscular systems. Source Answers.com
