FAQs

You have several choices here, but we will always review your goals for the work and check in about any treatment plans that have been agreed upon previously. You will be asked to breathe into your belly and feel the movement of the belly with the breath. Different kinds of work will focus on different organs and different tissues, but the large intestine and liver will always be addressed in order to help the body release toxins and eliminate them when the bowels move. The work can feel both gentle and firm , and you should always be able to feel the specific tissues that are being worked on with your practitioner. Sometimes people will feel sleepy and doze off during the work, and that is just fine. Other times you will be very awake and aware, but comfortably enjoying the session. Many people will feel some amount of discomfort in certain areas of the belly where there are areas of tension or old holding patterns that are releasing. Be sure to let your practitioner know if the work is too deep, or you just need things to go slower for a while.
