Lymph moves without a central pump. Short segments of lymph vessels called lymphangions squeeze rhythmically, and one-way valves between them keep the fluid heading toward the heart. Working muscles and the pressure changes of breathing add extra push. Lymph then rejoins the blood through large veins at the base of the neck, near the collarbones.
