Manual therapy techniques to work the Bladder and Intestines
Want to know how to work the bladder and intestines to help your clients feel better?
The bladder and intestines can be difficult to access because they’re well protected by the structure of the body and their positioning in the abdominal cavity. It makes sense. These vital organs aren’t meant to be on display. They are meant to be well cushioned and guarded from potential damage from the external world.
Because of this need for protection, working these territories can be difficult without the proper instruction. I created this course as a way to make working the bladder and intestines more accessible to manual therapy practitioners just like you.
Working these territories can be helpful for clients:
– With postural issues
– Recovering from surgery
– With back or pelvic floor pain
– Dealing with incontinence
– Feeling tightness in their abdomen
– Suffering from disorders like Crohn’s, IBS, Endometriosis, Diverticulitis, etc. (when not experiencing a flare-up)
While it may seem daunting to work in this territory, with proper instruction and a little practice, you will find that these techniques can easily be incorporated in your sessions when needed.
In this course, we will:
Discuss basic anatomy and functions of the bladder and intestines
Discuss indications and contraindications for working the bladder and intestines
Demonstrate how to use the Morales Method® Concepts of Palpation to create unique sessions that are tailored to the needs of each individual client
Hear feedback from the model, Caroline, about how it feels to receive this work as a client
Demonstrate manual therapy techniques for palpating and working the following territories:
The bladder
The ascending, descending, and sigmoid colon
The mesentery, a rarely discussed organ that connects the intestines to the posterior abdominal wall
Provide you with a detailed, downloadable PDF reviewing all the material covered in the course and the Morales Method® Concepts of Palpation.
This course focuses its instruction on how to palpate and connect with layers of tissue that are deep inside the body. This work requires you to hone your listening and palpation skills to an expert level that will ultimately improve all your skills as a manual therapist!
“Thank you for such a great fascinating insightful class. I have incorporated a few of the moves I managed to remember, and they went well. I received great feedback from clients and feel I’ve stepped up my game. :)â€
