Visceral Manipulation (VM) is Western healing arts practice in which a very specific gentle touch is applied to a person’s body.

VM practitoners work very gently on the abdomen (belly), thorax (the area surrounded by the ribcage), as well as the cranium (the skull). Visceral Manipulation can help restore the natural healthy rhythm and movement of your internal organs.

When healthy, the internal organs have their own healthy movement — everything slides and glides. In VM, the practitioner’s listens for the body’s internal tensions — where the organs or tissues are stuck or stagnant — then gently works with the body to resolve that tension.

Over time, the tension resolves into harmony, the organs function more efficiently, and your sense of well being grows.
