Services
Fertility Support
Our fertility support combines visceral manipulation with functional medicine to address physical adhesions and hormonal imbalances. We evaluate pelvic organ mobility, biochemical factors, and emotional components through comprehensive lab testing and manual diagnostics. Treatment protocols include organ mobilization, lymphatic drainage, and personalized nutritional programs to optimize reproductive health naturally.
Pelvic Floor Therapy
Specialized pelvic floor therapy addresses dysfunction through manual organ mobilization and musculoskeletal realignment. We treat conditions like urinary incontinence and pelvic pain using techniques that combine chiropractic adjustments with visceral manipulation. Treatment includes both in-office sessions and self-care protocols for long-term pelvic health maintenance.
Visceral Manipulation
Visceral manipulation techniques release abdominal adhesions and restore organ mobility using Barral method protocols. This treatment addresses pain from surgical scars, endometriosis, or chronic inflammation through manual therapy combined with home care using castor oil packs and self-massage techniques.
Chronic Pain Management
Our chronic pain management addresses musculoskeletal and systemic causes through fluid body manipulation. Treatment combines vascular release, lymphatic drainage, and neuroemotional technique to resolve pain patterns originating from adhesions, organ dysfunction, or unresolved emotional stress stored in the body.
Post-Surgical Recovery
Post-surgical recovery programs use manual adhesion release and lymphatic drainage to restore tissue mobility after procedures. We implement castor oil therapy and proteolytic enzymes alongside visceral manipulation to optimize healing and prevent new adhesion formation following abdominal or pelvic surgeries.
