Adhesions and Beyond . . .
Call for practitioners! At long last, the abdominal practitioner directory has been built! Now I am putting out the call for practitioners who would like to be listed. For those of you who aren’t familiar, I have been working on putting together a directory of practitioners who work with abdominal adhesions and other forms of … Continue reading …
I think it’s taken me most of the last decade to get good at talking about the power of the hands-on work to help with abdominal distress. I’m feeling more clear than ever and wanted to make a little “outreach” video. It’s very short and focuses on post-surgical adhesions since that what I see and hear … Continue reading …
There are certain commonalities among the folks who seem to have the most success in fully resolving their abdominal adhesions, pain and distress. Usually there is not just one thing they are doing, but a combination of things over time that helps to get the full resolution most people are seeking. Of course, I always … Continue reading …
One of the most inspiring things I’ve been hearing from people over the last year is how their loved ones (or trusted practitioners) have gone through the free or full hands-on program with them, and are now providing direct help.

I have been doing some touch-ups to the abdominal site and in the process of thinking about my “messaging,” I looked up the URL loveyourbelly.com. Usually when I do this kind of thing, I brace myself to see something porny or destructive or mildly-to-strongly demeaning. So, you can imagine my total relief and love and … Continue reading …
People think that when they come to yoga class, or when they’re on my table, or when they’re doing the belly self-care videos, they should “get it” right away. They get frustrated when they don’t. And understandably so. Most people like to feel that they understand that whatever they’re doing, that they’re doing it well. … Continue reading …
