Description
This manual lymph drainage guide covers the anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology of the lymphatic system, providing key background
information necessary for effective treatment. Chapters are structured according to anatomic regions, focusing on the lymphatic knots
and their tributary regions in the throat, armpit, trunk, and groin. Photographs illustrate the lymphatic knots and lymphatic courses,
which are drawn on the human body, and provide a clear picture of the structures to be treated. Designated points are numbered to illustrate
the progression of treatment in each region. Also includes coverage of complete decongestive therapy (CDT).
