Viscus represents the scientific term for an internal organ, and viscera is the plural form of viscus. Each internal organ possesses individual motility and mobility, which implies they can be manually manipulated and have their intrinsic rhythms.
Visceral tissues are delicate and require gentle handling. At Westmead, Our Physio Sujanya Iyengar’sapproach to Visceral Manipulation is both gentle and rhythmic, as shesynchronizes the pressure of her hands with the natural rhythm of your organs. This treatment is highly personal, emphasizing the importance of trust and the palpable care you experience.

Why do you want Visceral Manipulation?
At Recovery Rehab Westmead we highly suggest Visceral Manipulation for individuals experiencing gastrointestinal problems, such as issues with digestion like upset stomach, constipation, or heartburn, as well as those with unexplained abdominal pain. It’s also an excellent option for individuals who have undergone abdominal surgery, as it can effectively reduce the formation of scar tissue and prevent organ adhesions. Many pain conditions are rooted in organ issues rather than musculoskeletal problems, and Visceral Manipulation can provide relief from such discomfort. Moreover, it’s a safe and suitable choice for children and pregnant women.
