Lymphatic techniques have only recently been recognized as a distinct category of osteopathic manipulation. Previously, they were included under visceral sections of osteopathic principles and practice. The Educational Council on Osteopathic Principles (ECOP) doesn't define lymphatics as a separate type of osteopathic manipulation. In the ECOP glossary, the only specific mentions are the lymphatic (Miller) pump and the pedal (Dalrymple) pump. Many osteopathic physicians have tried to influence the lymphatic system. The idea of ensuring unimpeded blood flow has been widely emphasized, and most osteopathic students know A.T. Still's rule of the artery. However, Still also believed that the lymphatic system is crucial for maintaining health and, when stressed, significantly contributes to disease and increased illness. He described the importance of the lymphatic system with terms like "life and death."
