Massage & Manual Lymphatic Drainage by Jolee

This is a great reminder to meet your body where it's at to help move your lymph fluid. Some days we're doing good just getting out of bed, other days we hit the ground running! https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1EFsyrYY7w/

This is why I encourage extra fluids before your lymphatic drainage massage. Imagine the body trying to absorb or move all of this in a fluid thick like honey vs fluid thin like water ~

Are you trying to learn more about your lymphatic system?

💧🧬 LYMPH ISN’T JUST WATER!

If you’ve ever pictured lymph as basically “extra water” floating around your tissues…

There is SO much more happening inside that little drop. 👀🔬

Lymph is a biological fluid travelling through your lymphatic system, and its composition can vary depending on where in the body it comes from.

So what might we find in lymph?

💧 WATER + ELECTROLYTES
Fluid and dissolved substances form an important part of lymph and contribute to normal fluid transport and balance.

🧬 PROTEINS
Proteins that move from blood capillaries into the surrounding tissues need a route back into circulation.

Your lymphatic system plays a crucial role in returning these proteins. 🙌🏻

🛡️ IMMUNE CELLS
Lymph contains white blood cells, particularly lymphocytes, connecting the lymphatic system closely with immune surveillance and immune function.

🥑 FATS
And here’s the one many people don’t know!

Specialised lymphatic vessels called lacteals in your small intestine absorb much of the long-chain dietary fat from your food.

That fat enters the lymphatic circulation before eventually reaching the bloodstream. 🤯

So lymph isn’t simply:

💧 water that needs to be “drained”.

It is part of an extraordinary transport network involved in:

💧 FLUID BALANCE
🧬 PROTEIN RETURN
🛡️ IMMUNE FUNCTION
🥑 FAT TRANSPORT

That tiny drop has a BIG job. 🩷

And the more we understand what lymph actually IS, the easier it becomes to move away from all the internet talk about “dirty lymph”, “flushing toxins” and miracle detoxes — and start appreciating the real physiology of this incredible system. 🌿

👇 Did you know lymph could contain all of this?

💧 Yes!
😲 Absolutely not!

Hi Everyone!
Just touching base & being transparent~

As many of you know, we recently lost my daughter-in-law due to her long battle with cancer.....

What many of you many not know,
is that I have two autoimmune diseases
(RR-MS & Hashimotos)
And unfortunately stress can cause flare-up's....

THAT being said;

I really am trying to find that healthy balance of giving my body the rest it's demanding, and also trying to get clients rescheduled.

I am truly sorry for the inconvenience this has caused, and if I haven't returned your call, text or contacted you to get a canceled appt rescheduled....

~ PLEASE give me another week of grace, and then send me a follow-up text reminding me to get you back on my books.

I look forward to seeing everyone and thank you for all your thoughts & prayers!
This has been extremely hard.

Many of my clients knew and loved Starr Hill
from the short time she worked in my studio as our master Cryo-Therapist.

Please pray for my grandchildren James & Allie, and the rest of us who loved Starr Hill.
She will be missed more than words can express.

THANK YOU for supporting my small business!
From booking appointments with me,
and recommending me to others~

To VOTING my business #1 SPA in Ashland again!!!!

I honestly did a little Happy Dance when I got home from work today and seen my plaque was waiting for me!

Life isn't always easy,
And for some of us,
It can be downright hard.....

But it's moments like this, when we feel seen
and appreciated for our hard work & tenacity
that makes us feel grateful for pushing on.

I've shared Mike's post before when it comes to healing your Limbic System
(fight/flight & rest/digest modes)
And he has taught on the Lymphatic System.

This series on water for our bodies will be a great source of knowledge! There will be a lot of free posts & a few you have to subscribe to.
Feel free to glean as much as you want!

I currently don't subscribe, but I am considering it.

The Hydration Terrain – Series Introduction: The Water That Powers Your Life

You have heard Mike talk about the four pillars of terrain: liver, gut, lymph, and nervous system.

The liver gets the most attention. The gut gets the second most. The nervous system is beginning to be understood.

But the water? The water is the medium through which everything else moves.

Your body is approximately 60% water. Your brain is 75% water. Your blood is 83% water. Your heart is 73% water. Even your bones are 31% water.

But here is what no one told you.

Not all water is the same. Not all water enters your cells. Not all water hydrates your terrain. And the water that comes out of your tap; or your reverse osmosis system.. may be the very thing keeping you dehydrated.

The water inside your body is not H₂O. It is H₃O₂ .. structured, ordered, viscous, charged. This is not the water that comes out of a bottle. This is the water your body creates from the water you drink, using energy from sunlight, infrared radiation, and cellular respiration.

When structured water breaks down, the bioelectric matrix collapses. Cells misfire. Mitochondria stall. Mutations spread. You can drink all the water in the world and still be dehydrated at the cellular level if your body cannot structure it.

The Hydration Terrain will be a 10‑part series – the deepest map of hydration ever published on this page. We will cover everything from structured water to mineral depletion, from reverse osmosis traps to the water in food, from aquaporins to the dehydration of aging, from metabolic water to the chronic inflammation connection.

THE FULL SERIES MAP

The Hydration Terrain is a 10‑part series with a subscriber cornerstone. We publish in order. Every part builds on the last.

· Part 1 (free): The Water That Powers Your Life – structured water, H₃O₂, why babies are supple and the elderly are stiff.

· Part 2 (free): The Minerals That Make Water Wet – electrolytes, the sodium‑potassium pump, and why demineralised water fails your cells.

· Part 3 (subscribers): Reverse Osmosis – The Pure Water Trap – how demineralised water leaches minerals from your body and leaves you more dehydrated than before.

· Part 4 (free): The Water in Food – why fruits and vegetables hydrate better than water alone, and how traditional diets kept people hydrated without water bottles.

· Part 5 (subscribers): Aquaporins – The Gates of Cellular Hydration – the channel proteins that let water into cells, and what happens when the gates are blocked.

· Part 6 (free): The Dehydration of Aging – why you lose structured water as you age, and how to slow the process.

· Part 7 (subscribers): The Water Your Body Makes – metabolic water, cellular respiration, and why you are not just what you drink.

· Part 8 (subscribers): Thirst, Hunger, and Confusion – why chronic dehydration masquerades as hunger, fatigue, and anxiety.

· Part 9 (free): The Chronic Inflammation Connection – how cellular dehydration drives inflammation, and why hydrating the terrain calms the fire.
