Developed by renowned French physiotherapist and osteopath Jean-Pierre Barral, Visceral Mobilization is a gentle yet powerful technique that assesses and restores health and mobility to the tissues surrounding and suspending our organs. With a light touch, our trained therapist can evaluate each organs movement quality in all fascial planes, identifying tension and restrictions that may cause pain, tightness, and impaired function.

Conditions which may benefit from VM
- Long standing or chronic injuries that have not improved with standard Physiotherapy treatment.
- Scar tissues from operations such as C-sections, laparoscopies, appendix removal and gall bladder removal.
- IBS or constipation.
- General feelings or pain, inflammation, discomfort or general lethargy.
- Emotional stress

Salt's approach

Our innovative approach involves a series of gentle manipulations that can potentially enhance the functioning of individual organs, the systems they operate within, and the structural integrity of the entire body. By releasing tension and restrictions, Visceral Mobilization can have a profound impact on overall well-being.

Our approach is simple yet effective: Assess, Listen, Treat. We take the time to understand and listen to your body's responses, and tailor our treatment to promote optimal organ function and whole-body harmony.
