Abdominal Acupressure/Massage in Fertility Issues

What is Abdominal Acupressure/Massage?

Abdominal Acupressure/Massage is the manipulation of the abdomen while utilizing healing sounds, breathing, and visualizations that are based on the five elements of Chinese Medicine. In Taoist practice, each organ has specific characteristics energetically, physically, emotionally, and spiritually according to its designated element. The five elements are fire, earth, metal, water, and wood, and are known as the five phases of cyclical energetic movement in both nature and ourselves. Therefore when five elements are in harmony, the body, mind, and spirit are in balance.

How does Abdominal Acupressure/Massage work?

Our navel, or hara, known as the wind gate holds our vital organs together through the fascia. Therefore manipulations in the abdomen detoxify, refine, and strengthen our vital system which creates balance and harmonious flow of blood and chi. The abdominal area, with the internal organs and their internal structure, holds the secrets of a person: things we hide from ourselves. The navel, also, relates to energetically inherited emotions, trauma, stressful life experiences and this is why the acupressure or massage can be very sensitive and emotional. These unprocessed emotions block the efficient flow of blood and chi necessary in speeding up the process of gas exchange that helps release excess heat from the fascia, cooling and cleansing the organs and skin and providing us with energy we need to expend in our daily life. Doing six healing sounds recycles these negative emotions into positive healing energy that can free the blockages from the abdomen and through the entire body.
