When we breathe and move our bodies, our internal organs also move along with us.
Adequate movement of internal organs is important for normal function. Visceral mobilization is the restoration of movement and function to internal abdominal and pelvic organs via the application of specific gentle manual techniques administered by the physical therapist. Specialized training is required for this treatment method. Luba Starostiak, PT has extensive training and experience in treating utilizing these methods. Some examples where this may be used would be after pelvic or abdominal surgery, chronic constipation, pelvic pain, endometriosis to name a few.
