Internal Organ Massage

What is an internal organ massage?

Internal organ massage, also known as Chi Nei Tsang, is a massage performed on the abdominal area of the body with a goal of balancing the energies inside the internal organs. Internal organ massage descends directly from Taoism and the belief that this area of the stomach (the part around and behind the naval) is the most vital center in the body for life energy. Taoists believe that this is where energy is stored, generated and distributed to the rest of the body. Internal organ massage therapy is very important in this belief because this vital life force energy provides health, well-being and longevity. If this becomes blocked or disrupted, the body will experience bad health and illness. By receiving an internal organ massage, the patient is able to prevent disease, as well as experience healing.

What are the benefits of an internal organ massage?

There are many benefits that can be achieved through internal organ massage, including the following:

Detoxification—during the massage, as the stomach becomes more and more relaxed, the internal organ massage therapist is able to massage deeper into it. This can lead to detoxification in the body’s largest lymph node system.

Improved immunity—just as with the lymphatic system, the immune system can be improved in function by this deep massage, which will then help the body begin to heal itself of illnesses as well as prevent them in the future.

Raised metabolism—when this happens, the patient may experience many added benefits, including natural healthy weight loss as well as more energy than before.

Relaxation and stress relief—as with most forms of massage, an internal organ massage allows patients to relax fully and be relieved of stress, which then can lead to better health.

Well-being—because internal organ massage balances the energy within the body and releases any blockages that may be taking place, not only will the patient be healthier, they will just feel better generally, both physically and mentally.

As you can see, there are many wonderful benefits that can be achieved through internal organ massage therapy. To start enjoying these benefits, you can find an internal organ massage practitioner near you and schedule an appointment today!
