Figure 9.2Half-moon/circles: clearing the head and neck. (A) Begin near the distal end of the SCM justproximal to the cervical lymph pathway terminus (yellow dot). Apply level 1 pressure in a halfmoon/circularmotion (purple arrow) along the cervical lymphatic pathway (white line). Glide thefingers upward to a position slightly above where the previous stroke began (orange and yellowarrows) then perform another half-moon/circular motion with the fingers. Perform in a continuoussequence (1–5) moving upward along the margin of the SCM/lymphatic pathway. (B–D) Purplearrow: downward/drainage stroke; yellow arrow: upward (pressure-less) glide; purple dot: end ofprevious downward stroke; yellow dot: end of previous upward stroke.
PumpingPumping technique is mainly used on the extremities and continues the use ofthe circle-shapted stretching of the skin. The MT may use their entire palm flaton the skin surface and may use one or both hands to achieve the result. Thehand is in a palmar flexion with ulnar deviation and transitions into radialdeviation and wrist extension at the end of the stroke (see Fig. 9.3).

Pumping
Pumping technique is mainly used on the extremities and continues the use of
the circle-shapted stretching of the skin. The MT may use their entire palm flat
on the skin surface and may use one or both hands to achieve the result. The
hand is in a palmar flexion with ulnar deviation and transitions into radial
deviation and wrist extension at the end of the stroke (see Fig. 9.3).
