Scientific studies as well as clinical experiences have proven the effectiveness and successes of this technique since the 1930's. More and more within Canada and the United States the benefits are been recognized and appreciated.

The lymphatic system is part of the circulatory system responsible for carrying off unusable waste matter such as proteins, bacteria, long chain fats, dusts dyes , dead cells and cell parts mutant cells and more to lymph nodes where it is filtered and cleaned before returning to the blood . One of the key differences between these two systems, is that the lymphatic system does not have a pump, therefore movement is dependent on a number of boldly functions. Which over time would have suffered numerous misuse and in some cases abuse and thereby fail to operate efficiently
