I think it must be detox. Rebounding is supposed to be the best way to stimulate lymph drainage. Maybe try it for a few minutes at a time, several times a day, to start? I find that epsom salt baths and dry skin brushing help.
Here's an article I found on getting started; they suggest stretching and gentle bouncing to start:

Here's an article with lots of tips. It says to march on your rebounder before jumping. It says to focus on pushing down the heels of the feet and not on the jumping up movement itself, and to keep your spine straight and nose pointed up. It also says that just 2 minutes of rebounding can increase the white blood cell count:

Here's a summary of something I read:
The lymphatic system has 3 x more fluid than blood. It's the "vacuum cleaner" of the body. Lymph fluid bathes the cells in nutrients. These fluids flow thru the body in a system of tubes with one-way valves.
At the bottom of the bounce, there is increased pressure, which closes the valves. The valves open in the middle of the bounce. At the top of the bounce, the fluids begin to flow. As the body descends, the fluid flows, and this pulls waste away from the cells so it can be eliminated by lymph fluids.
Here's a link to an article I found with a Google search:

(Part of this article is copied and pasted below). The article says that it will chelate metals. Note the part about rebounding for 2 to 3 minutes once per hour--powerful stuff!:
Dr. Walker writes: “Exercising on a minitrampoline for its beneficial rebounding result enables you to create chelation therapy within your body and brain.” How does chelation take place? First of all, each cell in the body is “exercised” when bouncing up and down. The force of gravity first pulls, then releases each cell, thus stimulating cells to move their fluids and flush out toxic material as well as absorb nutrients. Additionally, the valves in the lymphatic system, the powerful force behind your immune system, open and close and pump lymphatic fluid during bouncing, even with very gentle up and down bouncing movements. The lymph fluid then removes toxins from the body as a whole, and it even produces more white blood cells. Those who have had major illnesses, such as cancer, attribute healing to the use of rebounding once per hour for two to three minutes. White blood cells increase dramatically during a short session of two to three minutes of rebounding.
Albert Carter, who first discovered the rebounding effect in the late 1970s, called it “the most efficient, effective form of exercise yet devised by man.”5 Dr. Walker states that “your whole cardiovascular system becomes stronger even without increasing its heart rate,”5 thus the elderly or ill need not begin vigorously exercising in order to receive chelation or other health benefits from rebounding. One of the many ways rebounding helps chelate toxins from the body and specifically from the cardiovascular system is through the stimulation of production of lactic acid by the muscles.
