February/May/October 2023 – Being Well Communications SEMINAR 1 – The Belly

Dr. Verna Hunt, BSc, DC, ND, teaching hands-on seminars.

SEMINAR 1
The Belly: What is going on in there?

People have various kinds of abdominal and pelvic discomfort and they come to your office seeking relief. External manual palpation can reveal many things, including things not visible on X-ray or MRIs. There is often a lack of functional movement in the structural framework that holds the abdominal viscera and the connective tissue and fascia, and/or lack of movements of the various organs in the abdomen. External manual treatment can correct positioning and assist in return to improved function.

The key learning highlights of this manual therapy training seminar are:

  • Palpation of organs of all ages, sizes and body types to determine placements of organs, intrinsic motion and the influence of scar tissue in the abdomen.
  • Determine if the gastrointestinal tract valves are opening and closing correctly.
  • Ability to externally manually treat:
    • Hiatus hernia
    • Liver and gall bladder placement and function of associated ducts
    • Pyloric valve spasm
    • Sigmoid flexure jamming of the bowel
    • Ileocecal valve function
    • Uterine and fallopian tube problems
    • Optimizing lymphatic drainage of the abdomen
    • Assisting in moving out pockets of gas
    • Assisting in untwisting digestive tract
