Visceral Osteopathy
 

Gentle but powerful approach to healthcare that targets the core of your being - your internal organs.

Visceral Osteopathy is a specialized form of osteopathic treatment that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of visceral (organ) dysfunction, recognizing that each organ plays a vital role in our overall health and wellbeing.

 

By addressing restrictions and tensions in the abdominal cavity, our skilled practitioners can help alleviate a wide range of symptoms, from digestive issues and pelvic pain to stress, anxiety, and fatigue.

​

This unique approach works by identifying and releasing areas of tension in the viscera, which can become restricted due to injury, surgery, infection, or other factors. Using gentle manual techniques, our practitioners can help restore normal function to the organs, improving blood flow, nerve function, and overall physiological balance.

Pre-treatment information

​What happens at my first consultation?

At your first Visceral Osteopathy consultation, you can expect a thorough and personalized assessment. Your practitioner will start by taking a detailed medical history, discussing your symptoms, and understanding your health goals. They will then perform a gentle and non-invasive examination to assess the functioning of your internal organs and identify any areas of tension or restriction. This may involve palpation (gentle touch) and observation of your abdominal cavity. Your practitioner will also take the time to explain the treatment approach, answer any questions you may have, and develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.

​

Is the treatment painful?

​Visceral osteopathy is not a painful treatment. It involves gentle manipulations of the internal organs and their surrounding tissues to restore balance and promote healing. If you're experiencing any discomfort during a visceral osteopathy session, it's essential to inform your osteopath immediately. They will adjust their technique to ensure your comfort and safety throughout the treatment. Your osteopath is trained to work with you to make the experience as relaxing and beneficial as possible, so don't hesitate to speak up if you feel any pain or discomfort.​
