Fascia plays a significant role in lymphatic drainage. Here's how:
1. *Mechanical support*: Fascia provides a matrix for lymphatic vessels, helping them to function properly.
2. *Fluid dynamics*: Fascia's viscoelastic properties facilitate the movement of lymph fluid through the body.
3. *Contractility*: Fascial tissue can contract and relax, potentially aiding in lymphatic pumping.
When fascia is healthy and hydrated, it can support efficient lymphatic drainage. However, when fascia becomes dehydrated or scarred, it may impede lymphatic flow, leading to issues like swelling or toxin buildup.
