The Connection Between Body Impairments and Organ Health: The Power of Visceral Manipulation
Visceral Manipulation (VM), a gentle manual therapy that focuses on the mobility and motility of the internal organs, helps restore balance, improve function, and relieve pain by addressing these deep restrictions at their source.
Each organ is connected to the fascia, nervous system, and musculoskeletal structures, meaning that restrictions in organ mobility can directly influence posture, movement, and pain patterns. Some examples of these
connections include:
Digestive Issues & Lower Back Pain
Restrictions in the intestines or kidneys can create tension in the lower back, altering spinal alignment and movement.
Liver Restrictions & Shoulder Pain
The liver shares fascial connections with the diaphragm and right shoulder, meaning a congested or restricted liver can contribute to chronic shoulder pain and tension.
Stomach Tension & Neck Pain
The stomach is linked to the vagus nerve, which affects stress levels and muscle tone. Chronic stress-related stomach issues can result in tightness in the neck and jaw.
Pelvic Organ Dysfunction & Hip Pain
Restrictions in the bladder, uterus, or prostate can create muscular imbalances in the pelvis, leading to hip pain and sacroiliac joint dysfunction.
