Experts say that jumping rope or jumping on a small trampoline for 10 minutes three times a week is a powerful way to improve lymphatic flow. [사진= 게티이미지뱅크]What if your ankles are swollen, your fingers are swollen, your thighs are bumpy with cellulite, and your stomach feels bloated? This is a sign that your lymphatic system is not working well.
When your lymphatic system slows down, it makes losing weight that much more difficult. This is because fat storage doubles when lymphatic velocity slows down. As we get older, the slowdown gets worse.
Introduced by the American women’s magazine ‘First for Women’, let’s find out how to expel fat and toxins quickly by activating the lymph.
1. Take a deep breath
The lymphatic system is connected to every system in the body, including the nervous system that regulates emotional functioning in the brain. When you feel anxious, stressed or tense, your nervous system switches into ‘fight or flight’ mode. This suppresses the immune system, causing the lymph to produce fewer white blood cells, thereby slowing down the lymph flow.
Therefore, the first thing to do to strengthen and restore the lymphatic system is to practice diaphragmatic breathing. This will send a ‘safety signal’ to the nervous system to relax.
Place your hands on your belly and inhale, counting to three as you expand your belly. Exhale and count to three, relaxing your stomach. Repeat 5 times, taking deep breaths each time. This deep breathing puts the nervous system into a comfortable ‘rest and digest’ state and pushes the lymph fluid from the lower body toward the heart.
2. 60 Second Limp Reset
The body is designed with a series of unidirectional lymphatic vessels that must be opened in the correct order to ensure that the lymph does not stagnate and drains properly in the correct direction.
With two fingers, start at the collarbone and press down on the underside of the skull behind the ears and into the armpits. Next, press your stomach regarding two inches above your navel, and below your buttocks where the groin crease is. Finally, press the back of the knee. A total of 60 seconds of routine, 10 seconds for each part, stimulates and opens the lymph channels.
3. How to do a lymph reset
Now that the deep breath and 60-second lymph reset has relaxed the body and is ready for lymph flow, choose one of the following methods to urinate the stagnant lymph fluid.
– jumping up and down
Experts say that jumping rope or jumping on a small trampoline for 10 minutes three times a week is a powerful way to improve lymphatic flow. Jumping is similar to how lymphatic vessels open and close vertically to pump lymph throughout the body.
– Do self-massage
Lie down comfortably and massage your abdomen with your palms in a clockwise direction.
– Wipe the skin
Washing your skin before showering is not only a great way to exfoliate, but also a surefire way to improve your lymph flow. Using a dry brush, starting from the hands and feet, gently stroking the body in the direction of the center of the body promotes lymphatic movement and helps move accumulated toxins.
– Take a cold/hot shower
Alternate between hot and cold water in the shower to stimulate the sluggish lymphatic system. Since lymphatic vessels contract at low temperatures and expand in response to heat, alternating hot and cold showers move stagnant lymphatic fluid and increase blood circulation to promote immune function and metabolism.
