Episode Synopsis
Why Your Lymph Is Still Backed Up: The Hidden Truth About Lymphatic Congestion No One Is Talking About… YetIn this episode of Connecting with the Thom’s, we’re taking you behind the scenes into a powerful real-life case that opened our eyes even more to the complexity of the lymphatic system.After six months of focused work — supporting lymph drainage, opening the kidneys, improving hydration, movement, breathwork, and terrain — a client’s diagnostic test still showed major lymphatic congestion.So… what was going on?This surprising result led us into a deeper investigation and revealed several critical truths about the lymphatic system that almost no one is addressing — not in functional medicine, not in detox programs, and definitely not in mainstream health.In this episode, we explore:💧 What the lymphatic system really doesNot just “detox” — but immune surveillance, fluid regulation, communication, and terrain management.⚠️ Why lymphatic congestion can remain—even with consistent supportAnd why the typical tools (dry brushing, rebounding, gua sha) don’t always address the real blockages.🧠 The deeper biological medicine insights that helped us understand this caseIncluding how emotional states, autonomic patterns, structural issues, and terrain imbalance affect lymph flow.🌿 The core reasons the lymph “locks up” that aren’t talked about… yetWe break down what we now see over and over again in clients who can’t get their lymph moving despite best efforts.🔄 What to do when your lymph isn’t responding to what “should” workPractical tools, reframes, and deeper layers that bring the whole picture together.If you’ve been working on your lymph and still feel swollen, puffy, inflamed, or blocked… this episode is going to help you connect dots that finally make sense.And if you’re a practitioner — this will change the way you assess drainage forever.🌱 Resources Mentioned in This Episode:Explore biological medicine and drainage education:👉 https://www.biomed-drainage.orgBecome a certified Biological Medicine Practitioner:👉 https://biomed.thinkific.com/Join the 1 Day Case Based Learning Webinar: BIA, Nerve Express & PEMF Therapy February 7th 9-2pm MT 👉 https://drdicksonthom.com/💛 If today’s conversation opened something for you, please share it, subscribe, and leave a review.Your support helps more people discover a more compassionate, root-cause approach to healing.Have a question you want covered on the podcast?We love hearing from you — send it our way!—The Thom’sLet's connect beyond the podcast:Julie's Info: Website: https://fitomize.caYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/fitomizefitnessInstagram: http://instagram.com/fitomizefitnessFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/fitomize/HRV FB group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/hrvjourney/LinkedIn for Julie - https://www.linkedin.com/in/julie-thom-b133881a0Join Julie's email list: https://api.leadconnectorhq.com/widget/form/8RlwuumfVZaum1yiEmudDr. Thom's Info:Website: https://drdicksonthom.com/LinkedIn for Dr. Thom - https://www.linkedin.com/in/dick-thom-7a36163/Purchase the book: https://drdicksonthom.com/product/the-brain-protocol-book/BTG’s Book; https://drdicksonthom.com/product/basic-treatment-guidelines-aka-natures-laws-to-live-by/
