Digestive issues
What Is It?
Digestive issues can present as bloating, pain, constipation, diarrhea, reflux, or discomfort after meals. The causes can be varied – from stress and diet to scar tissue, adhesions, or reduced mobility in the digestive organs. For example, reflux can also be caused by tension in the abdominal area, weakness in the diaphragm, or imbalances in the musculoskeletal system.
Assessment
We start with a discussion of your symptoms, medical history, lifestyle, and diet. Then we examine the abdominal area for tension and reduced mobility in the connective tissue around the organs. We also assess the musculoskeletal system, as tension and trigger points can affect organ function.
Treatment
Treatment consists of gentle manual techniques that increase circulation, reduce tension, and improve mobility in the connective tissue around the organs (visceral manipulation). This can help the digestive system function more effectively. You will also receive exercises and advice to support the treatment at home.
What Can Visceral Manipulation Help With?
Visceral manipulation can be used for:
-
Digestive issues (reflux, hernia, irritable bowel, Crohn’s disease)
-
Gynecological challenges (painful menstruation, infertility, incontinence, postpartum issues)
-
Scar tissue and adhesions after surgery or injury
-
Back pain and musculoskeletal complaints
-
Other conditions where organ mobility and function are affected
