What the heck is Organ Massage?

Organ massage, otherwise known as Visceral Manipulation isn't a new fad. It was popularized in the 80s by French osteopath Jean Pierre Barral. He went on to create the Barral Institute which has become a leader in training and education in Visceral Manipulation and other manual therapy techniques.

Most of the time when people hear the word massage soft music, scented oils, and relaxation comes to mind. Sometimes, we think of more therapeutic applications such as sports injuries, headaches, or low back pain. Rarely do we associate massage therapy with our organs.
