Lymph travels unidirectionally from tissue into the blood stream via lymphatic capillaries which join to form vessels and these then join to form ducts. As there is no central pump lymph is moved through the vessels via compression of the vessels by [[Muscles - Anatomy & Physiology#Skeletal Muscle|skeletal muscle]] contraction. All lymph passes through [[Lymph Nodes - Anatomy & Physiology|lymph nodes]] before it reenters the blood stream. Further details of the lymphatic vessels can be found [[Lymphatic Vessels - Anatomy & Physiology|''here'']].
