New Treatments for Spinal Pain Did you know your stomach or liver could be creating low back, mid back, or neck pain? The internal organs are all attached to the rib cage and spinal bones via thin pieces of connective tissue called fascia or visceral ligaments. This is what helps to keep your internal organs in the right place while you go about your day. Injuries to the body from falls, accidents, or trauma can create a tightness or strain in this fascia and over time that tightness will pull on the spine and can create persistent pain. Things like infections, abdominal surgery, and cesarean sections can also create adhesions which have the same pull on the organs and spinal structures. Visceral manipulation is a very gentle manual therapy technique that can be applied in order to restore mobility in the visceral fascia, which can create less pull on the spine and reduce neck, mid back, and lower back pain.
