Proper quality and movement of the internal organs and their surrounding connective tissue are also important to consider, even when dealing with an orthopedic issue.

For example, the pericardium is a membrane that surrounds the heart and serves to support it and hold it in place as it beats. This pericardium attaches to the cervical, dorsal, sternum, esophagus and thoracic diaphragm vertebrae. The therapist will therefore take care to first treat the attachment point (s) which are in a lesion situation in order then to normalize the tension of the pericardium and allow it to regain a balanced role. "Structure governs function". It is the same for all the viscera.

Visceral treatment can be helpful for issues such as:

• Back pain

• Heart burn

• Frozen Shoulder

• Digestive issues

• Infertility

• Constipation

• Circulatory Issues
