Why you need an Abdominal Massage?
AB Massage physically releases deep tension and refreshing the blood flow to muscles and organs for adults, children, and infants.
Have you ever felt a “knot in your stomach” ? Many people hold stress in the abdominal region causing chronic tensing of the muscles that impair blood flow and lymphatic drainage into & out of the abdominopelvic cavity, and can hinder deep breathing causing lack of normal motion of internal organs hindering the excursion or movement downward and coordination of the respiratory and pelvic (levator ani) diaphragms. Normally the two diaphragms work in concert, moving together up and down as we breathe to “massage” the internal organs which facilitate normal organ physiology and processes for optimal digestion. When the abdomino-pelvic region is incorrectly aligned, the normal flow of blood and lymph are constricted and can disrupt nerve connection. The circulation of blood to the uterus, ovaries, bladder, and bowel is blocked.
