Your lymphatic system works like a “drain” to keep toxins moving out of your body. A clogged system can result in poor health and disease. Here are five ways you can keep your lymph system working in top order and experience better health: 1. Massage- Lymphatic massage is gentle using very little pressure to move and stretch the skin to stimulate flow through the lymphatic capillaries that are located just under the skin. 2. Dry Brushing-This technique boosts lymph flow by stimulating sweat glands and supporting circulation below the skin. 3. Exercise & Yoga- Unlike the circulatory system, lymph does not have a pump to keep it moving. Movement and muscle contraction will assist lymphatic circulation. 4. Anti-Inflammatory Diet- Consuming a healthy diet rich in antioxidants and full of healthy fats is critical to support a healthy immune system. 5. Hydrate- The lymphatic system is primarily composed of water and must be hydrated to function at the highest level.
