The largest lymph node in the body is in the abdomen called cisterna chyli, and if it gets blocked your gut will be inflamed.

The lymph needs to travel from the spine up to your collarbone. If the collarbone is blocked then the lymph fluid gets stuck and your body won’t be able to heal your gut.

That is why the collarbone is the number one spot I work on during your massage to ensure that it’s not blocked and fluid can flow freely.

The health of a woman’s lymphatic system will have a direct impact on her ability to move progesterone around the body. Because progesterone is so critical to female hormone balance, it may be more important than ever for our lymph to be moving freely, serving as a delivery system for progesterone, to balance out estrogen.
