Unlike blood, which is pumped throughout the body with the help of the heart, Lymph needs gentle muscle contractions to reach the lymph nodes , located in the neck, forearms, sternum, abdomen, top of the thighs, behind the knees and elbows - that's why it's important for us to give our body that stimulus.

Deep down, The lymphatic system has a purification function, and supporting lymphatic drainage can be helpful for numerous things:

• Regulate bowel movements
• Improve digestion
• To have cleaner and more radiant skin.
• Improve skin texture and prevent/reduce cellulite.
• To improve cases of chronic headaches.
• Relieve muscle tension
• Improve the immune response
• Relieve menstrual symptoms
• Increase energy and vitality.
