This Effects of Non-Invasive Superficial Craniocervical Lymphatic Drainage (NSCLD) on Memory and Cognitive Function in Adults with Sleep deprivation: A Proof-of-Concept Study aims to investigate the effects of Non-Invasive Superficial Craniocervical Lymphatic Drainage (NSCLD) on memory and cognitive function in adults experiencing sleep deprivation(SD). Given the known impact of SD on cognitive performance, this study seeks to explore whether NSCLD, as a non-invasive intervention, can mitigate the cognitive impairments associated with SD.
