「內臟筋膜鬆動術」是一種輕巧、精準的手療法，目的是將內臟、結締組織及生理運動之身體部位的活動度及張力正常化。

「運動」是生命本身的象徵，宇宙中所有的東西都在運動。一切都在時間和空間中移動，人類也不例外。

我們的身體需要運動來維持健康，同樣的原理可以運用在我們體內的所有結構上，包括臟器。臟器需要活動來維持健康與最佳功能。

Visceral Manipulation is a manual therapy consisting of gentle, specifically placed manual forces that encourage normal mobility, tone and inherent tissue motion of viscera, their connective tissue and other areas of the body where physiologic motion has been impaired.Motion is a sign of life itself. Everything in the universe is in motion. Everything moves in space and time and humans are no exception to this rule. Our bodies need movement to be healthy. This same principle applies to every structures in our bodies including the viscera. For an organ to be healthy and have optimal function there needs to be motion.

當組織發炎的時候會失去該有的正常運動。自然復原的過程中包含局部正常組織纖維崩解，並且被相對無彈性的顆粒組織取代。我們可以想成受影響的組織「乾掉」了，其中，許多因素會使組織發炎：感染、直接創傷、重複性動作、飲食、環境毒素及情緒壓力。

Tissues lose their normal motion when they become inflamed. The natural healing process involves local disruption of normal tissue fibers and their replacement with relatively inelastic granular tissue. It can be conceptualized as a localized drying-out of the affected tissue. Many factors can cause tissue inflammation including: infections, direct trauma, repetitious movement, diet, environmental toxins and emotional stress.

身為內臟筋膜鬆動術的學員，您將學會如何評估臟器的運動，運動主要分為兩種：一種是臟器被周圍組織推擠造成的運動，稱為「活動度(mobility)」，

另一種則是臟器本身固有、主動的「蠕動度(motility)」。除此之外，您還會學到如何治療這些減少/改變的運動，使臟器恢復良好生理運動，進而達到內臟功能促進的效果。

As student of Visceral Manipulation you will learn tools for evaluating organ motion, in particular, two types of movement: one motion caused by the pushes and pulls of surrounding tissue(mobility) and the other, the organs own intrinsic, active motion(motility). You will also learn techniques to treat these areas of decreased/altered motion, thereby restoring better physiologic motion, which in turn will improve the function of the organ.

研討會重點Course Highlight :
