Visceral  Release

    Viscera are the organs within the pelvic, abdominal, and thoracic
    cavities.

    Visceral release is  based on specific  placement  of  soft  manual
    forces  to  encourage  the  normal  mobility,  tone  and  motion  of
    viscera,  thus  improve  cellular  fluid  exchange.   

                                Why  is  Motion/Movement  of  Viscera  Necessary?

    Firstly  you  need  to  know  what  restrictions  and  adhesions  are.  
    A  restriction  is a decrease in motion of a structure.  An adhesion is the sticking
    together of layers of tissue resulting in  reduced movement.

    When an organ is reduced  in  movement  and or can no longer move in harmony
    with its  neighbours  because  of  abnormal tone,  adhesions  or displacement,  it
    begins to work against its neighbours.  This sets up a course of chronic irritation
    in  the  body  and  paves  the  way  for  dysfunction.

    If a  structure or an organ is  reduced in its  capacity to move,  the fluid exchange
    between the cells  can  also be  reduced.  Fluids  contain  energy  in  the  form of  
    blood,  oxygen,  nutrients,  chemical messengers, and is essential for the removal
    of  waste products from  cells.  Thus cellular function,  repair and replacement is
    compromised.  Waste  products  within  and  surrounding  the  cells  accumulates.  
    Imagine the accumulation of waste products impact on the ovaries, uterus, cervix,  
    prostate, colon, liver, gall bladder, kidneys, pancreas, lungs, heart, and breasts.

    Visceral  release  is  a  technique used  to  free adhesions and restrictions. This
    gentle therapy can potentially improve the functioning of individual organs,  the
    systems the organs function within, and the structural integrity of the entire body.
