ADVICE

Use The Diaphragm To Pump Lymph

  • Retrain the diaphragm and practice diaphragmatic breathing to mechanically pump lymph and massage organs.
  • Stephanie teaches hooking under the diaphragm and breath-assisted manual releases to restore organ position and lymph flow.
ADVICE

Bind Before Big Fascial Releases

  • Use binders when doing fascial releases because released toxins re-enter circulation.
  • Stephanie recommends starting with plant antioxidant binders and clearing the left collarbone area before deeper interventions.
ANECDOTE

  • Stephanie described extreme unilateral breast swelling from lymphatic stagnation that deflated after collarbone neurotherapy and fascial teasing.
  • Heart palpitations accompanied the recirculation, then subsided as lymphatic drainage improved and the left breast 'deflated.'
