Visceral Manipulation

I have just completed a second training in Visceral Manipulation, and feel confident I now have had a couple of years to fully digest and assimilate this type of work. It is subtle yet very powerful. I personally had a great breakthrough in the course; where a pain I had been struggling recovering from would not budge; despite numerous attempts by very skilled hands and therapies. Visceral Manipulation works on overburdened or damaged organs that can develop adhesions and scar tissue that makes them less pliable. It is a gentle manual therapy that helps release restrictions and unhealthy compensations that cause pain and dysfunction. As the body is integrative skeletal/muscle/fascial/nerve/blood flow/ lymphatic/ emotional restrictions can be linked to internal organs ability to glide and move not only with the breathing process but within the cavities membranes and over each organ. Often due to severe trauma, such as car accidents or extreme stress issues, the organs hold on to this tension.

Lymphatic Drainage

Have you ever experienced swelling after a bump, a cut, or after surgery? This is one of the body’s way of dealing with inflammation, infection and/or toxins.

For many reasons sometimes the body cannot fully eliminate the the build up of fluid and it swells and can be painful/harmful. The body’s regulation of this fluid is done through the Lymphatic system . It can need support at different times help it remove waste/toxin or excess fluid for example; after surgery, oedemas, lymph oedema, sinusitis, dentistry, scarring, carpal tunnel and more

Remedial Massage

Is the direct manipulation of soft tissues of the body. It aids in the healing and repair processes, it restores structural balance and prevents a recurrence of the problem.
Remedial Massage can help to heal an injury and it is also extremely useful in preventing the injury from reoccurring. This is done by using specialised massage techniques to manipulate  Fascia and soft tissues of the body.

The Practice

Embodiment practices are those that ground us in an awareness of being in our bodies. Massage is a form of embodiment as is Yoga. When we get up off the mat or table we feel more connected, centered. When we have been injured thru any trauma the body holds the memory. Whether it is physical, mental or emotional.
