OTHER

Osteopathic Pedal Pump

Participants randomized to this condition will receive 5 minutes of myofascial release to the thoracic inlet and 5 minutes of the pedal pump technique.

OTHER

Light Touch Treatment

Participants randomized to receive the sham treatment will receive light touch from the operator on the base of the neck and the balls of the feet. This light touch is meant to mimic the pedal pump through touching the same areas of the body but without palpating so that no lymphatic fluid is removed from the lower limbs.
