Say Goodbye to your Pain and hello to Getting Your Life Back
Have you tried multiple therapists or different healing modalities and nothing has worked? Has your pain or issue returned and is constant now? Visceral manipulation is a massage therapy technique performed by a small number of massage therapists in Victoria but gives you profound results.
Visceral manipulation is an exciting emerging field in the hands-on treatment of the human body and it can help you feel better quickly.
Who Is Visceral Manipulation for?
Visceral manipulation is a gentle, hands-on manual therapy used to help your internal organs (viscera) glide smoothly within your body. Your massage therapist can use this technique to treat abdominal pain, constipation, shoulder pain, indigestion, headaches, back pain and much more.
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 rotate or flex your torso.
Connective tissue should be loose enough to allow your stomach to expand when you eat, your lungs to open and accept air, your intestines to constrict and relax to move waste to your colon.
Congested or inflamed connective tissue impedes these small but significant movements. This creates visceral discomfort and dysfunction and can lead to restricted movement and pain in other parts of the body.
For Someone That Wants long-term benefits
Approximately 80-90% of all muscuskeletal pain have a visceral component. Typically where you're feeling the pain isn't where the problem is, it stems from elsewhere in the body. While it feels nice to relax the muscles with a regular massage, it doesn't always get to the root cause.
When other therapies don't give you long-term results
Have you tried different types of therapies but you're not getting last results? Visceral manipulation can be a great technique to achieve lasting results.
Reduction in neck, shoulder, and back pain
Working on the tissues in the abdomen can help relief tension in your neck, shoulders, back and hips. This most likely happens through different attachments via tissues (everything is connected) or neurologically from where the nerve comes out of the spine.
Reduces complex conditions
Visceral manipulation can help relieve those with complex disorders - fibromyalgia, MS, or IBS. It is a gentle hands-on therapy that works through the body's visceral system, including the intestines and other internal organs, to alleviate abnormal points of tension.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most frequent questions and answers
What can visceral manipulation help with?
Visceral manipulation can help relieve symptoms of digestive disorders, menopause (hot flashes), or chronic tension in the body (typically neck, shoulders, back, or hips). It is a gentle hands-on therapy that works through the body’s visceral system, including the intestines and other internal organs, to alleviate abnormal points of tension. It encourages the normal mobility, tone, and motion of the viscera (the internal organs) and their connective tissues.
How is visceral manipulation performed
When performing visceral manipulation, your RMT will use up and down, back-to-front, and side-to-side motions to massage the organs and release tension or restrictions to return the organ to optimal functioning.
The type of touch performed by the practitioner includes compression, mobilization, and elongation of the tissues. These are all very gentle pressures throughout the treatment. You may be standing, sitting, or laying down, depending on the goal.
What is the goal for visceral manipulation?
The goal of VM is to encourage normal tone and movements both within and between the internal organs, their connective tissue, and other structures of the body.
Visceral manipulation is used to locate and release dysfunctional patterns throughout the body that restrict movement and decrease vitality. It encourages your natural mechanisms to improve the functioning of organs, reduce the negative effects of stress, enhance mobility, and improve metabolism.
