Welcome back to Connecting with the Thom’s!

If you’ve been doing “all the right things” for detox—supplements, cleanses, infrared saunas, lymphatic massage—but you still feel inflamed, foggy, or downright exhausted... this episode is for you.

Today, we’re exploring one of the most misunderstood and skipped steps in the healing process: drainage.
Not detox. Not forcing your body to push harder. But instead, gently supporting your body’s natural elimination pathways—starting with your lymphatic system and lungs.

We’ll walk you through:

• 🔍 The real difference between detox and drainage

• 💨 How nebulizing can support lymphatic movement and lung-based toxin release

• 🚫 Why most detox protocols backfire without open drainage pathways

• 🌿 How to safely exit the “healing crisis” loop by working with your body

• 💡 Simple, terrain-based tools that align with biological medicine and trauma-informed care

This is the conversation your nervous system, liver, and lymph have been waiting for.
We’re not here to push harder—we’re here to clear smarter.

• You feel worse after detoxing or supplements

• You're stuck in cycles of inflammation, fatigue, or brain fog

• You’re curious about nebulizing, drainage-focused healing, or biological medicine

• You want a trauma-informed approach that supports your body’s rhythm

• You’re a practitioner ready to better support drainage in your clients
