Visceral Integration: Abdominopelvic Interrelationships
Return to Calendar
VISCERAL INTEGRATION: ABDOMEN & PELVIS.
Approaching the viscera in the same contextual framework as 'recipe' sessions 1-6, this class bridges the container and the contents. Ideal for beginners, Visceral Integration is a user-friendly direct technique approach to visceral mobilization. The class focuses on the practitioner's clinical reasoning skills, body mechanics, and practical manual therapy techniques targeting the organs of the abdominopelvic cavity. Generally following the three-dimensional trail of the larger visceral ligaments associated with the Gastrointestinal Track, visceral structures covered include the small intestine, cecum, ascending colon, hepatic flexure, liver, gall bladder, transverse colon, stomach, spleen, splenic flexure, descending colon, sigmoid colon, urinary bladder, lesser and greater omentum, root of the mesentery, and parietal peritoneum. Structural components include the respiratory diaphragm, pelvis, sacrum, coccyx, lumbar spine, sacroiliac joints, transverses abdominus, iliacus, psoas, QL. Visceral Integration expands the SI Practitioner's skill set in working with core/sleeve dynamics and critical Structural-Visceral Interrelationships. This class supports your preexisting practice and provides new tools and techniques for working with the whole body and the whole person. The objective is systems anatomy structural integration.
Bruce specializes in troubleshooting and problem-solving tricky pain and orthopedic problems from structural, functional, and biopsychosocial perspectives. Bruce has studied Visceral Osteopathy and Visceral Manipulation Technique extensively since 1996 including 300+ hours directly with Jean-Pierre Barral DO. Bruce has studied VM with Alain Croibier DO, Didier Prat DO, Alain Gehin DO, Claudia Kohn DO, Olivier Bazin DO, A.J. de Koning DO, Marc Naudin DO, Rene Assink DO, Bonnie Gintis DO, Mark Bookhout PT, Dee Ahern PT, and has assisted VM considerably with Gail Wetzler PT. Bruce has assisted Judy Russell PT and Peter Coppola PT with the Barral Institute's Visceral Dissection classes for many years.
