pachira pruning help needed!

I've had my pachira plant since about 2004 and I've never pruned it. It always does really well, strong leaves and healthy. For the 6 months it's been slowly getting droopier and I think that its leaves are just too heavy now. I'd like to do some pruning but I don't know where to begin. Since it has only 2 shoots where the leaves are growing from (the only two going towards the right in the photos) so I don't know if pruning is a good idea. I'd like to get more growth from the trunk itself but I don't think that's possible.

Please see link for pics:

Some advice would be helpful- thanks in advance!!!
