This massage takes usually around 30-40 minutes.

The abdomen is massaged using fingers,

thumbs, palms, knuckles and arms to mobilise

the bowels in a gentle manner.

Why?

Many things can affect the functioning of the digestive system- stress and anxiety being major factors.

During the ‘fight or flight’ worry response blood is drawn away from the abdominal area causing twisting, tortions, blockages and general absorption imbalances. Abdominal massage gradually manipulates the affected area and re-balances the internal system to leave the client feeling relaxed and cleansed.
