    S1 Ep4 Bodywork for Fertility and Pregnancy: An Interview with Susana Montoya Pelaez

    S1 Ep4 Bodywork for Fertility and Pregnancy: An Interview with Susana Montoya Pelaez

    In this first of a 2-part episode, Suzanne speaks to Susana Montoya Pelaez, a body worker who uses physiotherapy, craniosacral therapy, visceral manipulation, applied kineseology and other modalities to heal and bring balance to people's bodies. A talented, learned and inspired healer, Susana explains how a woman's body can be helped by bodywork to conceive, and how a woman's body can be physically prepared for pregnancy and birth.

    This information is a practical yet radical look at how women's bodies can be helped to achieve a healthy pregnancy and birth, and a look at many different ways a body can be subtly compromised and how it can be helped to adjust to a place of vigour and vitality.

    It is important information not only for mothers and mothers-to-be but also for all birth workers.

On today’s episode, I’m going to share with you all that I’ve learned in my 6 years of working with gut health problems. Because guess what?

    91// The Fascia Solution to Acid Reflux

    91// The Fascia Solution to Acid Reflux

    On today’s episode, we are continuing a conversation we’ve had on this podcast multiple times, but with a totally new perspective: Acid Reflux.

    According to a National Gastrointestinal Survey in 2015 with over 70,000 participants, 30% of these participants experience acid reflux on a weekly basis. And within that group, another 35% of participants experience acid reflux even WITH taking PPI’s - a pharmaceutical designed to block acid production in the stomach and - theoretically - end acid reflux. 

    Among the participants, younger individuals, women, Latino individuals, and participants with irritable bowel syndrome or Crohn’s disease were more likely to have continued GERD symptoms, even when taking PPIs.

    So - the big question -

    • Why do we get acid reflux?
    • And why does acid reflux persist, even after taking medication and pharmaceuticals?

    On today’s episode, I’m diving into a rarely discussed topic in acid reflux that is KEY is solving this stubborn GI problem - fascial restrictions. 

    Continuing with our series from last week, I’m going to teach you about how your physical body is perpetuating your acid reflux, what key anatomical structures are involved in acid reflux, and at the end of the show, I’m going to teach you three practical steps you can use TODAY to evaluate if your fascia is causing your stubborn acid reflux.

    90// Fascia 101: The Hidden Force Behind Bloating, Constipation, and IBS

    90// Fascia 101: The Hidden Force Behind Bloating, Constipation, and IBS

    Have you ever wondered:

    • Why abdominal pain makes you want to hunch over?
    • Why you can restrict food and avoid food sensitivities and STILL get bloating, abdominal pain, constipation, and acid reflux?
    • Have you ever jammed your fist into your belly, feeling there was something wrong deep inside - you just didn’t know what?

    If so - today’s episode is for you!

    On today’s episode, we are getting into a topic that I am VERY passionate about and that doesn’t get talked about much in the gut health world - Fascia.

    If you’ve never heard of it - no worries. I’m going to be explaining what it is and WHY you want to care about it. 

    And if you HAVE heard of it, you may be thinking - Allison, doesn’t fascia have to do with muscles and pain and stuff? What does it have to do with the gut?

    Oh. So much my friend. Glad you asked!

    Fascia is at the root of what I study as a Visceral Manipulation and Craniosacral Therapy Practitioner, and it’s has been the key to many of my clients in making a 180-degree turn from their acid reflux, constipation, bloating, and more.

    If you are ready to get to the ROOT of your gut health problems - today’s episode is for you.

    Visceral Manipulation with Eileen Burns

    Visceral Manipulation with Eileen Burns

    Visceral Manipulation - what is, who would benefit, and how to find someone!

    Visceral Manipulation is exactly that - manipulation of your viscera, or the internal organs in the main cavities of the body, especially those in the abdomen, e.g. the intestines.  But, did you know that can help so much more than just stomach or abdominal pain?

    Visceral Manipulation (VM) Therapy was developed by world-renowned French Osteopath and Physical Therapist Jean-Pierre Barral. Comparative studies found Visceral Manipulation beneficial for various disorders.  And our guest today, Eileen Burns, is a physical therapist who specializes in VM. And she shares how she's worked with people with shoulder issues, GERD, backpain, and more. Other claimed benefits include help for whiplash, TBI, reflux and digestive disorders, endometriosis, chronic pelvic pain, headaches and migraines, post-surgery pain and scars, anxiety and depression, and more (Barral's complete list at https://www.barralinstitute.com/therapies/)

    This is a great conjunction for the work I do. I teach people about the Wheel of Health – where it involves  4 aspects of addressing root causes of pain and GI issues. We target sleep, stress/infection, nutrition/gut health, and physicality – the aspects of movement, posture, alignment, and so on. But as I work via telehealth, I don’t get too deep into this physicality aspect. So I love having guests on who can bring that area of expertise to the show! And Eileen is sharing how she does hands on work of the abdomen, connective tissue, and viscera to help with pain, pelvic floor health, GI issues, shoulder issues, back pain, and more!
