Osteopathic Manipulation Training Courses

Discover the transformative benefits of Abdominal Visceral Mobilization for your patients. Led by experienced Physical Therapist and Canadian Trained Osteopath Tim Bonack PT, DOMP(C), DScO, you will gain insight and skills in treating the everyday and more challenging patient alike.

Focusing on the gentle mobilization of the abdominal organs, this form of treatment restores normal mobility to abdominal organs. Since many of the abdominal organs attach to the anterior aspect of the lumbar spine, sacrum, and ilia; treatment of the abdomen can restore spinal and pelvic mobility, thereby making large changes in hip, pelvic, sacral, and low back pain. An added benefit is that this treatment promotes normal regulation of somatovisceral and viscerosomatic reflex pathways, the important neurologic connections between the bony elements and the abdominal organs.

Adding Abdominal Visceral Mobilization techniques to your skill set can help tap into underlying causes of failed low back pain treatment, hip and pelvic pain; digestive issues, and abdominal pain. Restrictions of the abdominal structures are often the underlying, and frequently ignored, driver in musculoskeletal dysfunction and digestive issues. The Abdominal Visceral Mobilization series of classes introduces you to the assessment and treatment of the many abdominal organs and their relationships with the musculoskeletal system.

The Abdominal Visceral Mobilization I course is the first in a series of 3 abdominal courses that expand your palpation, evaluation, and treatment skills over time.
