Lymph is a fluid that renews purified cells of the body and is present in 15% of our body. Composed in a 96% water, lymph fluid is considered the most noble of the body, and cerebrospinal fluid. It circulates throughout the body at a slow pace (4 mm / s).

The lymphatic system is parallel to the vein, and it collects waste substances around the body. Indeed, they are large molecules which canot pass through the venous wall by transiting through the lymphatic network of different types of vessels. Initially, these vessels are fine as "angel hair"; becomes bigger and more important to arrive at the key locations of the immune defense mechanisms, which are nodes. There, the pathogens responsible for diseases are metabolized through a process called "phagocytosis."

On the basis of the lymphatic system is an "open" system from the start in the lymphatic capillaries, until its completion in the supraclavicular fossae, the maneuvers will be proximal to distal. As the circulatory system is a closed system, massage maneuvers are conducted in the most distal to proximal.

Within these meridians, the twelve main channels are bilateral, covering the body from head to tip of toes and hands, the secondary channels are those that bind the entire system. Along each channel there are points of maximum energy which the Chinese called "Tsubo", and where they apply the acupuncture needles. To achieve this balance the energy flowing through these meridians correcting a defect or excess of it. Thus, the body can prevent illness and even self heal.

Already in the twentieth century, Dr. Eunice Ingman and other scientists synthesized the entire system of reflexology dividing the palm and back of hands and feet in areas that correspond perfectly with the human body and all its organs and systems.
