When you're doing the lymphatic drainage massage you should focus on moving the fluid towards the areas where the lymph nodes are, which are located in front of and behind your ears and along your jawline.
There are also tools such as jade rollers or Gua Sha stones which can be used to perform lymphatic drainage massage, although you should always use gentle pressure and the proper technique.
