Description
In this massage course, Mike Everson, Manual Osteopath, Registered Massage Therapist and Yoga Teacher is going to guide you through how to deliver visceral abdominal massage. Visceral abdominal massage is traditionally done by osteopaths but can easily be done by any manual therapy practitioner as a way to treat abdominal pain, constipation, back pain, pelvic pain, and much more. Visceral abdominal massage is a gentle, hands-on therapy used to help your internal organs (viscera) glide smoothly within your body. Your internal organs are surrounded by connective tissue that holds them in place in the body. Healthy connective tissue should move easily to allow organs to slide on each other when you flex or rotate your torso. Adhered or inflamed connective tissue impedes small but significant movements. This creates visceral discomfort and dysfunction which can lead to restricted movement and pain in other parts of the body. Other things like underlying conditions, post-surgical adhesions and infections can also cause abdominal restrictions and referral pain. This course is perfect for therapists looking to have a complete understanding of the human body, knowing how the health of the organs can effect pain all over the body and also how to treat that pain is essential for any manual therapist to know to be as effective and helpful as possible. You can study and complete this entire course in the comfort of your own home with lifetime access to the videos in case you need to go back, review and re-inspire yourself!
