description: "Danish Dr. Emil Vodder and his wife Dr. Estrid Vodder proposed the alternative medicine practice of \"lymphology\". While working on the French Riviera treating patients with chronic colds, they noticed these patients had swollen lymph nodes. In 1932, the Vodders began to study the lymph system, and developed careful hand movements to cause lymph movement. In 1936, after four years of research they introduced this technique to the world in Paris, France. They spent the rest of their lives demonstrating and teaching this method."
