Restrictions in organs and organ systems can create tension, disease, and slowness of an organ. Gentle manipulations can treat the mechanical dysfunction created by how the organ pulls on surrounding tissue, and other areas in the body. Soft manual forces are used to encourage the normal mobility and motion of organs (viscera) and their connective tissue restoring them once again to a healthy state.

Visceral Manipulation helps to alleviate organ dysfunction that can present as musculoskeletal pain often in the low back, neck, SI joints and hips. It can also treat scoliosis, acute or chronic abdominal pain, and pain referral that leads to headaches or migraines. Visceral Manipulation is successful in treating dysfunction in digestion, the bladder, constipation, acid reflux, infertility, menstruation, urogenital issues for men and much more. Gentle manipulations of the organs treat the mechanical dysfunction by releasing ligaments and fascia that surrounds an organ and corrects how an organ pulls on surrounding tissue. This helps to alleviate pain and encourages normal mobility, motility, and tone of an organ restoring them once again to a healthy state.

Why Visceral Manipulation

There are a few reasons as to why organs lose their mobility and have dysfunction. A physical restriction can come from physical trauma such as a slip or fall, motor vehicle accident, surgery, pregnancy and delivery, infection, bad diet, posture and stress including emotional stress.

The treatment is gentle, relaxing and very effective. Stubborn back and neck pain can be the result of an organ and its connective tissue or simply pain referral from an organ. When massage alone does not give you lasting relief, an organ can be the culprit. This treatment is also safe for infants and children.
