Visceral (organ) manipulation, abdominal mobilization, and connective tissue manipulation

To understand visceral manipulation think of a chiropractor who has to adjust and bring back a vertebra which is out of place. Chiropractors use spinal assessment and adjustment to reduce the subluxation and thus alleviate irritation of the nerves.

Visceral manipulation and abdominal organs mobilization have the same concept. Very complex structures of nerves, arteries, veins, lymphatic nodes, and vessels are housed in the abdomen. When practitioners manually adjust abdominal organs, they remove tension, spasms and drooping organs; allowing them to restore to their proper place.

This procedure is incredibly relaxing because all three nervous systems are influenced. The goal is balance and normalcy through enhanced circulation, elimination, and digestion. Normalization of compromised structure always improves function.

Visceral manipulation is a form of treatment based on the concept that the abdominal organs hold keys to the physical and psychological well being of the organism.

Organs may lose their motility and mobility due to these causes

  • Intestinal or urogenital infections

  • Constipation or diarrhea

  • Emotional, chemical, physical trauma

  • Strenuous physical labor or exercise

  • Pregnancy

  • Surgery and liposuction

  • Overeating

  • Use of drugs (prescription/ over the counter), especially antibiotics.

All of the above triggers are conducive to connective tissues stiffening and restricting when organs are no longer freely mobile in their cavities and fixed to other structures or each other.

Unfortunately, normal adaptation and compensatory reactions of the body, when a traumatic stimulus is chronic or repetitive, may lead to functional and or structural damage.

Sadly, in our society, the emphasis is placed mainly on nutrition, even though since the dawn of time many great visionaries and scientists have recognized and acknowledged the fact that good elimination is the main, if not the only, contributor to robust mental and physical health as well as longevity.

Your Treatment

A combination of manual treatments such as visceral manipulation and lymphatic decongestion therapy triggers the healing responses of the body with the first touch of the practitioner.  At the end of the treatment, all of the body’s healing processes accelerate to the degree that all patients have reported exceptionally profound positive shifts and heightened feelings of well being on both mental and physical levels.

Before and during the treatments, we also educate patients on healthy lifestyles with a special emphasis on the importance of a thorough understanding of physiological, biochemical and mental processes. We also examine their impact on the psychological and physical health of the individual patient.

This knowledge will help you throughout your life to make healthy choices.

Important Facts About Your Gut

  • 95% of serotonin, the feel good hormone, is produced by the small intestines.

  • The gut has its own nervous system, called the Enteric Nervous System. It is able to support its own function without directions and guidance of the central nervous system. We can safely assume that the human gut is intelligent and has an enormous effect on not only health and well being but also mood.

  • The gastrointestinal tract is the home of more than 1,000 different strains of bacteria. Having a balanced variety of bacteria strains with the right amounts plays one of the key roles in the maintenance of good health.

  • Bacteria digest our food for us. They synthesize enzymes, vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. Essentially they are decomposing our accumulated, uneliminated toxic waste. They are indispensable and are literally the building blocks of life.

Poor performance of digestive organs is linked to multiple issues

  • Migraine

  • Heart Disease

  • Hypertension

  • Autism

  • Depression/Anxiety

  • Insomnia

  • Dementia

  • ADD/ADHD

  • Arthritis (all forms)

  • Obesity

  • Diabetes

  • Constipation

Claudia L., Irregular Periods

I came to this office looking for a solution for my cellulite problem.  I tried different treatments before and I did not get any good results. I am very thankful to Ina, her knowledge and treatments change my life.  My cellulite started to disappear since the first treatment.  And now, after the fifth treatment, I can tell that 80% of my cellulite is gone.  Plus, I lost 10 pounds combining healthy eating habits and exercise.  I totally recommend this place to all those women suffering from cellulite, inability to lose weight or even any health issue.

Nazila A., Cellulite, Weight loss

I came to this office in terrible health conditions, suffering for many years from obesity, constant pain in stomach, bladder inflammation, knee’s pain, legs’ cramps, irregular heart beating, and many other symptoms. I was devastated, frustrated by traditional medicine and had nothing to lose. And here I am – just a few months later, experiencing a complete transformation of myself! First of all, that’s unbelievable physical change: I’ve lost 45 pounds, have much more energy, I look younger and all my symptoms are GONE! It was a miracle, but there is an explanation for it: all my sicknesses had one source and Ina removed it using a holistic approach towards my body, spirit, and mind. My mental, spiritual and emotional transformations were also amazing. Ina has such a deep knowledge and wide expertise about human health and well being! She does her best to convey this to her patients. I came home after each session full of new information to think about and implement into my life. And I did my homework. We work together and the result is truly impressive! Every single day I am thankful for finding this office, meeting Ina and changing my life for good.

Larisa, Weight Loss, Chronic Pain

Two weeks ago, all of a sudden I developed horrible low back pain. It was like piercing through my back  with a knife. It took me five days to understand: it’s not going away anytime soon. I decided to ask Ina to give me a treatment.

In a little bit more than one hour my pain was more than 90 % gone. Ina gave me recommendations and information about my condition and in a week I was as good as new.

When I told my friends about my experience, the ones who suffered with back pain, had a difficult time to believe me, that I healed my back so fast. I send them to Dr. Ina to check her out.
