This is the second course in our Integrated Visceral Techniques Series, a comprehensive training in hands-on techniques designed to give practitioners the skills to assess and treat multiple symptom pictures impacting digestion and other aspects of our physiology.

This course involves a 2-day, hands-on, in-person workshop focused on learning effective releases for the diaphragm, liver, stomach, and abdominal sphincters, all within the context of the vagal system.

Since understanding the relevant anatomy and physiology of the organs greatly improves our hands-on work, we provide online lectures in the associated anatomy and physiology to complement our in-person training. Students are expected to review the online materials before our in-person time together.

About IVT II

This course focuses on digestive dynamics related to “SIBO” type conditions and other inflammation of the middle portion of our digestive system. Treatment for these conditions often focuses on getting rid of the bugs but leaves out “why” the bugs ended up there in the first place. The course will present both an anatomical/conceptual model of the small intestine, spleen, pancreas and gallbladder that is based both on East Asian medical understanding and western embryology. 

We will then put these ideas in our hands and learn specific techniques for each part of these interrelated fascial structures. The techniques presented here can be part of an integrated treatment plan for folks dealing with these stubborn conditions. 

Practitioners will learn meaningful and direct treatment options for the visceral-fascial structures most commonly involved in small intestine related digestive difficulties. 

This course will also include time for students to refine their approaches to the diaphragm and the sphincters. Visceral fascial work is easily learnable and skill development takes time and repetition. 

Conditions potentially treated by skills learned in this course:

  • The myriad middle digestion (small intestine) related digestive problems. These have increased in complexity and difficulty to diagnose over the years
  • Including the function of the gallbladder in your treatment of these small intestine related digestive problems is important
  • Gallbladder function; often we can help folks avoid gallbladder surgery if treated early
  • Pain and cramping in the small intestine
  • Supports folks who have digestive symptoms related to Lyme and other infectious processes
  • Headaches/brain fog
  • Insomnia
  • Constipation/diarrhea
  • Scar tissue in areas covered

This course is designed for licensed healthcare professionals, those enrolled in a healthcare training program, or those who are otherwise on a licensing path in a healthcare field (LAc, LMT, ND, etc.). If this does not apply to you but you would like to be considered for this course, please reach out to us and we will be glad to discuss it with you and make sure your interests are a good match for a particular course.
