HYDRATE!!!  

Stimulation supports of your lymphatic system and releases toxins that need to be flushed out!!!

According to Dr. Oz, the kneading and working of your muscles can dehydrate you AND a massage relaxes the body and releases circulatory pathways that allow for movement of metabolic waste.  The water you drink provides your kidneys with the water needed to eliminate this waste.
