IMPT Difference
Visceral, Neural, and Vascular Manipulation
- Visceral, neural, and vascular manipulation are osteopathic treatment techniques that were developed by Dr. Jean Pierre Barral, DO, in France. In collaboration with the Upledger Institute, Dr. Barral introduced the techniques in the United States over 35 years ago.
- They are a form of gentle manipulation of the fascia surrounding the nervous system, vascular, and visceral structures (internal organs), which can become "stuck" together. This may be due to surgery, illness, inflammation, injury, food allergies and intolerances, stress, or daily "wear and tear".
- The "stuck" effect may cause adhesions, scar tissue, or connective tissue to no longer move freely, thereby limiting motion and creating pain (like a really tight shirt makes it hard to raise your arms up or really tight jeans make it hard to squat).
WITH THESE TECHNIQUES, MOST PEOPLE FEEL IMPROVEMENT
