Your lymphatic system is a network of vessels that runs throughout your body, and transports waste bacteria and toxins away from your cells, like the body’s garbage removal service that effectively removes anything unwanted. When our lymphatic system isn’t circulating properly we can feel unwell, come down with more colds & viruses, have achy joints, infections, and a build-up of toxins in the body. Exercise & Massage help keep the lymphatic system flowing & Cold plunging also causes your body’s muscles to contract, which gives the lymphatic system a huge boost to get all those waste products out of the body.
