First I would like to say that this post is not a scientific fact, however, it is based on scientific evidence and deserves to be heard!
Core hooping is inarguably beneficial to your lymphatic system because as the hoop revolves around your body it massages and pumps your lymph nodes which can only circulate out the toxins if the muscles around them are moving. There are not muscles in the breast, and the best way to get those lymphs moving is to make sure they keep moving! Having breasts constantly squeezed in decreases the outflow of toxins. I've recently discovered information about the increase of breast cancer among women who wear bras. A book titled Dressed to Kill by Sydney Ross Singer and Soma Grismaijer breaks down the notion that wearing a bra increases the risk of breast cancer because it restricts the natural movement of the lymphatic system within the tissues of the breast. There is about a 125 time fold increase in breast cancer compared to women who do not wear them.
As a woman with a 36D breast size and having worn a bra since I was 12 years old, I know that when you move, your breasts move. I started off small and saw that my grandmother, a women who I apparently had the same "figure" as, was very large chested. I was told that to avoid this, I was going to need to wear a bra which would restrict their movement, keep them from sagging, and possible make them smaller. Well that sounded great to me! However that is not what happened. And I currently feel betrayed that this information was possibly even the opposite of what needed to be done. Apparently going bra free can assist in retaining the elasticity in breasts to keep them from sagging. I still grew a large bust and with breast cancer looming in on both sides of my family, I am seeking methods to avoid this dark booby-hating monster.
If there is NO WAY you're going to get rid of your bra, maybe there is still a way to help decrease the risk of getting breast cancer. I think chest hooping or rebounding (jumping on trampolines, pogo sticks, or anything that bounces you!) can help.
I remember the first time I "got" chest hooping. It hurt. From then on I avoided it because I thought it would make my breasts bruised, weak, or heaven forbid SAGGY! Well now I think that is not true. Just as I trained my breasts when I was 12 into being confined, I now want to train them to endure a beating for awhile to make them stronger. I know any pain associated with chest hooping will subside. It will increase the blood flow, strengthen the tired tendons, give my lymphatic system a jolt, and aid in overall health!
Its strange to think that the constant massaging that a hoop does when it is going around my body could be in any way helping it. But it is a fact that massaging the lymph nodes is healthy and will decrease the risk of cancer. So I can put two and two together! I've also heard that a trampoline can decrease lymphatic cysts after just 2 weeks! I think chest hooping should be added to the list of prevention cures. While we cannot find something to obliterate the disease, we can do anything in our power to prevent it. And since lymphatic cysts are decreased after they have been discovered, I guess it really does obliterate it too.
A healthy lymphatic system can help you cure everything from cellulite to cancer. I think chest hooping has the potential to decrease breast cancer because of its effects on pumping/circulating the contents of the lymphatic system in the chest region. I think it should be recognized as an effective workout for lymphatic diseases anywhere on the body as it can be used on several parts of the body.
