YES, YOUR LYMPHATIC SYSTEM HAS A PUMP!
There are many wellness influencers online (and doctors) that state the lymphatic system doesn’t have a pump. That you NEED to complete all or most of these things in order to move your lymph fluid:
⚪️ rebound
⚪️ open lymph nodes
⚪️ use a vibration plate
⚪️ skip or jump
⚪️ dry brush
‼️FALSE! ‼️
Let me introduce to you LYMPHANGIONS. Located between two unidirectional valves in a lymph vessel, lymphagions consist of smooth muscle tissue which PUMP the lymph fluid forward.
Stay calm everyone. You do not NEED to rebound everyday just to ensure your lymph fluid moves forward. Your body is designed to do that job for you.
If you find those activities listed above do help with fluid retention, stagnant lymph fluid or overall inflammation, then do it! But don’t do it because an influencer online scared you into it. Protect your peace. ✌🏼
