Go Beneath the Surface Where True Healing Happens
In this focused SomaFlow course, you will learn how to work gently and safely with the visceral system, the internal organs of the body. This hands-on training helps you understand how organ restrictions affect movement, posture, and chronic symptoms.
You will get practical tools to release deep tension and support healing on a more subtle and intelligent level.
SomaFlow Internal Organs (Visceral) Course
Hands-On Visceral Therapy for Deep Release and Full-Body Integration
Why Visceral Work Matters?
When organs get stuck or tense, from stress, trauma, poor posture, or scar tissue, they don’t just affect digestion.
They pull on the body’s fascia, throw off alignment, and can cause pain in places like the back, hips, shoulders, or neck, even if the organs themselves don’t hurt.
Tension in the organs can also make it harder to breathe and may hold emotional stress. By gently releasing this tension, we can help the whole body move, feel, and function better.
This course teaches you how to find those hidden patterns and release them with skill, awareness, and care.
What You Will Learn
You will learn gentle, hands-on techniques to work with the organs in a safe and respectful way. It includes both the physical and energetic layers of the visceral system.
We will cover how organ mobility affects posture, alignment, and breath and how to recognize and release restrictions using clear palpation skills. You will practice soft, layered touch for areas like the liver, stomach, diaphragm, and intestines.
You will also explore:
- How certain organs relate to nearby muscles (like the liver and shoulder, or gut and hips)
- How trauma and emotional memory can live in the organs
- Breathwork to support organ mobility and calm the nervous system
- How to work with energy and intention while treating deeper layers
A Trauma-Informed Approach
SomaFlow’s visceral work is never forceful or invasive.
We teach a slow, gentle, and respectful approach that lets the body release tension in its own time. You will learn how to notice signs of stored trauma and work with the nervous system, not push against it.
Because organs can hold emotional stress and old patterns, this kind of work needs more than just technique, it also needs presence and sensitivity.
We will guide you in developing both the hands-on skill and the energetic awareness to work safely at this deeper level.
Course Format
This is a 3-day, in-person training at the SomaFlow Institute in Las Vegas. The environment is small-group, hands-on, and supportive. You will work with peers under close guidance, learning to sense and treat with clarity and care.
