The lymphatic vessels in our bodies have a very important mission: to transport lymph from various tissues back to the circulatory system. This transportation of fluid is extremely important to the immune system. Neither the bacteria nor the white blood cells found in the lymph would be moved to their intended location if the vessels were found to be clogged. Lymphatic drainage promotes movement of lymph and circulation, assuring that the proper elements are transported to their proper locations, essentially decreasing one’s chances of chronic illness.
