    Study was done in mice, and it relies on massaging specific lymph nodes which are easily accessible for massage (sounds like most of the lymph nodes related to the brain-flushing mechanism are too deep in the neck to really get at).

    Super curious if/where humans have analogues.

          But it could make your back feel better for a day or two. Why address the cause when we can just temporarily fix the symptoms?

            Most of what they do is just placebo, recently read somewhere about it not even reliefing issues but the noise making people feel better for a short while.

          have you thought maybe it might be easier to ghost her?

          just pretend you’re dead and she might go away.
