The central hub of the lymphatic system is the cisterna chyli, a sac-like reservoir located deep in the abdomen. It collects all the lymph fluid from the digestive organs and the lower half of the body. From there, this fluid pumps up through the thoracic duct and empties into the bloodstream near your collarbone.
Your breathing, inflammation, digestion, hydration, and stress levels can all affect how lymph flows through your body.
Abdominal congestion can slow the entire system, leading to bloating, fluid retention, heaviness, and leg swelling.
Understanding physiology is key, true lymphatic drainage begins internally, and targeted lymphatic work is exactly what unlocks that process! 🩶
