Numerous scientific studies have been conducted on the positive effects of laughter therapy.

The largest lymphatic vessel is located under the bone that goes down the middle of the chest, from your neck to your stomach.

The diaphragm, a powerful breathing muscle, is located near the base of this bone. Laughing causes the diaphragm to press on this lymphatic vessel, creating a pumping action, helping to move lymphatic fluid.

Why does this matter? Lymphatic fluid carries white blood cells, your body’s powerful army against invaders. Anything you can do to get these aggressive military soldiers working for your benefit will have a positive effect on your health.

White blood cells are formed in the bone marrow, and then migrate to the lymph nodes, where they are stored until mobilized for action.

In addition to laughter, you can help your lymphatic fluids by exercising. Without its own pump, your lymphatic system relies on movements from other systems in the body to stimulate it. When you exercise, lymph nodes located under the arm, at the groin and behind the knee, are pumped and squeezed, promoting lymph flow.

Receiving Lymphatic Therapy increases the movement of Lymphatic Fluid, circulating white blood cells, and gives your body an immune boost.
