Visceral Manipulation to Balance the Inner Body

 

Feeling nauseous or bloated during pregnancy? Do you also experience back pain at the same time? These symptoms are often more connected than you might think. During pregnancy, hormonal shifts, internal organ displacement, and muscle imbalances can cause discomfort in multiple areas. At Physic Ebisu, we focus on this inner-body connection through our signature “Abdominal Hands Care,” supporting pregnant women with natural, gentle bodywork.

 

 

 

• The Gut-Back Connection

As the uterus expands, it compresses the stomach and intestines, leading to poor digestion and bloating. Relaxin, a hormone that loosens ligaments, can cause organs to shift and digestive enzymes to fluctuate, resulting in heartburn or discomfort after meals. These issues can cause tension in the muscles and nerves around the back, especially the mid-back and shoulders, creating radiating pain.

 

• Abdominal Hands Care: Our Gentle Approach

Our original “Abdominal Hands Care” uses soft manual techniques to release tension in the stomach, diaphragm, and intestines while supporting your baby’s safety. By reducing tension in the diaphragm, we improve autonomic function and help alleviate referred pain in the back. All techniques are customized for pregnant women and performed in positions that are safe and comfortable.

 

• Nutrition and Gut Health Support

To improve gut function, we also offer guidance based on molecular nutrition. Key nutrients like B vitamins, zinc, and quality proteins support digestion and enzyme production. A balanced microbiome is essential for digestion and overall comfort, so we recommend probiotics, dietary fiber, and post-meal light walks. For those interested, we offer gut microbiome testing to personalize your care plan.

 

 

Conclusion

Stomach discomfort and back pain may appear unrelated, but they’re often linked through deep internal mechanisms. At Physic Ebisu, our Abdominal Hands Care improves organ positioning, nervous system balance, and muscle tension—helping you feel better without medication. If you’re looking for safe, pregnancy-focused care in Tokyo, we’re here to provide gentle solutions for both you and your baby.
