What is Lymphatic System?

The lymphatic system is made up of vessels, nodes, and lymph, all of which work together to keep us safe. Together with the immune system, it makes sure our organism is protected from outside invaders, toxin, bodily waste that threaten our vital organs and all other detrimental substances. The lymph vessels are similar to the blood vessels, but instead of blood, they carry a liquid known as lymph. The lymph's main responsibility is to carry lymphocytes and phagocytes (immune cells), to areas in the body that are under external attack. Alongside this responsibility, the lymph takes the detrimental waste from cells and transports it to the lymph nodes for destruction. -a process also known as lymphatic drainage.

What is it the swollen lymph nodes?

You may question about it when you notice these enlarged lymph nodes surround your body that do not go away easily. As already mentioned previously, the lymph nodes are part of our lymphatic system. These are located in various parts throughout the body, including neck, armpit, chest, belly, and groin. The main task of the lymph nodes is to filter harmful substances that have been transported by the lymph fluid. This way, our lymph nodes help the body fight severe infections, invading pathogens, and numerous dangerous diseases. Once the lymph node gets to deal with a virus or bacteria. it gets swollen which is caused by the increasing number of white blood cells in it. Having said that, we can still help it in the fight by performing our particular technique to push the lymph throughout the body. This breaks up swollen lymph nodes and eliminated the excess fluids in the body. Our special rhythmic hand stokes can stimulate and improve lymph fluid flow.
