It was then, and come to the aid lymphatic drainage.
No need to be afraid of the word "drainage", no executions over you, no one will produce. Can just lie on the couch and relax. The first thing the therapist will work your lymph nodes, he does it with light circular movements in their places of the main cluster - under the chin, the neck, armpit and groin areas in the solar plexus. This is done in order to wake up the lymphatic system and make it work.
Once he begins to work with the individual parts of the body, moving from the center to the periphery. Gentle pumping movements he makes the lymph fluid moving through the vessels to the kidneys where it is filtered, displayed in the bladder and further from the body.
