- DoreenMichele 6y agoYes. If you are too impaired to exercise, massage, warm salt-water baths and eating/drinking the right things to help flush wastes from the system can help compensate for the lack of exercise.
- yencabulator 6y agoIf you have problems with fluids gathering in your lymph nodes (which is a medical condition that often arises from e.g. having some lymph nodes removed due to tumors, cancer, etc), your doctor will prescribe you regular lymph massages, to do exactly that. It's a specialized field and not the usual muscle-focused massage, but a physical therapist might train for that as an extra.
