🧠✨ Neural Sensing of Organ Volume

Did you know that many of our internal organs—like the stomach, bladder, and airways—constantly change their volume? This fascinating article reviews the mechanosensory receptors, specialized cell types, and neural circuits that detect these changes.

By understanding how the body senses organ stretch, researchers are opening the door to new ways of treating autonomic dysfunction—conditions where automatic processes like breathing, digestion, or bladder control go off balance.

🦴🤲 Frozen Shoulder... From the Gut?

A 2020 study explored how Visceral Manipulation (VM) helped people with adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder)—and the results were remarkable:
🔹 Decreased pain
🔹 Increased shoulder mobility
🔹 Improved daily function

By addressing visceral restrictions—especially in the liver and stomach—the study showed how manual therapy can influence joint health from the inside out.

🔈 MYOFASCIAL RELEASE VS. CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY

What is Craniosacral Therapy?

Craniosacral therapy is a method of alternative medicine used by massage therapists, naturopaths, chiropractors and osteopaths, who manually apply a subtle movement of the spinal and cranial bones to bring the central nervous system into harmony. This therapy involves assessing and addressing the movement of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) which can be restricted by trauma to the body, such as through falls, accidents, and general nervous tension. By gently working with the spine, the skull and its cranial sutures, diaphragms, and fascia, the restrictions of nerve passages are eased, the movement of CSF through the spinal cord can be optimized, and misaligned bones can be restored to their proper position. This therapy is said to be particularly useful for mental stress, neck and back pain, migraines, TMJ Syndrome, and for chronic nervous conditions such as fibromyalgia.

What is Myofascial Release?

Myofascial Release is a gentle therapy that consists of a mixture of light stretching and massage work. During a session, the therapist will apply hands-on massage strokes in order to release tension from the bands of the muscles, bones, nerves and joints, by unblocking any scar tissue or adhesions due to injury in the muscles and surrounding tissues. The theory of myofascial release requires an understanding of the fascial system (or connective tissue, which is not to be confused with the word facial). The fascia is a specialized system of the body that has an appearance similar to a spider's web or a sweater.
