Visceral
Massage

What to Expect

Visceral massage is a focused, slow-paced session centred on the abdomen. Svetlana uses gentle, sustained holds and subtle tractioning techniques to encourage natural movement of the organs within the abdominal cavity. Restrictions in this area — often from past surgery, scar tissue, illness, or chronic stress — can affect digestion, posture, breathing, and even pain patterns elsewhere in the body. Sessions are calm, fully clothed where possible, and tailored to your comfort.

• Detailed intake on digestive history, surgeries, and current symptoms
• Postural and breathing assessment
• Gentle, sustained holds on the abdomen and surrounding fascia
• Subtle tractioning to release restrictions and encourage organ mobility
• Closing relaxation and breathing integration
• Self-care and breathing recommendations to support results

Common Conditions Supported

• Digestive issues — bloating, sluggish digestion, IBS-pattern symptoms
• Menstrual discomfort and pelvic tension
• Lower back pain that doesn't respond to standard massage
• Post-surgical adhesions and scar-tissue restrictions (after full healing)
• Posture changes related to abdominal tension
• Recovery support after emotional or physical trauma held in the gut

Why Visceral Massage

The organs and fascia in your abdomen are deeply connected to your nervous system, posture, and pain patterns elsewhere in the body. Visceral work is one of the most effective ways to address tension that hasn't responded to other forms of bodywork — especially after surgery, childbirth, or long periods of stress. It pairs well with cranio-sacral therapy and lymphatic drainage as part of a longer-term care plan.
