Energy
POSITION
r
The client is lying supine on the table, with a bolster under the knees. Female clients are covered with a separate chest drape.
r The therapist is standing at the side of the table next to
the client’s waist.
POLARITY
Place the left palm (negative pole) on the abdomen (positive pole). Slide the right palm (positive pole) underneath the client’s back to contact the lumbar spine (negative pole). Your palms should be aligned to each other vertically through the client’s trunk. Keep your hands relaxed, allowing them to mold to the contours of the client’s body and to be moved by the motions generated by the client’s breathing action. During this polarity hold, focus on feelings of trust and nurturing, allowing the client to become accustomed to being touched in the abdominal region. Hold for at least 1 minute.
SHIATSU
Slide the fingers of both hands under the client’s back, palpating the lateral edge of the erector spinae in the lumbar region with your fingertips. Straighten the fingers, allowing the weight of the client’s trunk to rest on your fingertips. Repeat on the other side of the back. The outer branch of the bladder channel runs along the lateral border of the erector spinae. This move helps to relax tightness in the muscles of the low back, allowing the lumbar spine to decompress.
Swedish/Cross Fiber
1. Perform circular effleurage on the abdomen.
2.
Perform two-handed petrissage on both sides of the torso, between the rib cage and pelvis.
3.
Perform circular friction around the abdomen in a clockwise direction.
4. Perform fingertip raking across the abdominal muscles.
196 Scheumann’s The Balanced Body: A Guide to the Integrated Deep Tissue Therapy System
Connective Tissue
Place your right palm on the abdomen, over the navel area. Place your left palm on top of your right hand. Make a slow, clockwise spiraling motion, moving the skin over the under­lying tissues. Do not glide over the skin. Gradually increase the size of the spiral, stretching the skin and fascia as far as they can comfortably go.

Trigger point patterns in the abdominal mus­cles are not as predictable as those in other
muscle groups. The referred pain from these trigger points is often mistaken for visceral pain. Trigger points in these muscles often cause pain bilaterally.
Check all muscle attachments thoroughly, feeling for strings and lumps that are frequently found around trigger points. The origin of the rectus abdominus at the pubic symphysis often harbors trigger points, as does its insertion along the inferior border of the rib cage, just lateral to the xiphoid process.
Abdominal Muscle Attachments on the Iliac Crest (External and Internal Obliques and Transverse Abdominus)
Strokes
r Stand at the side of the table, and face the upper border
of the client’s iliac crest. Placing one or both thumbs on the upper border of the iliac crest, apply short, side-to-side strokes against the inner edge of the bone.
r
Continue around the pelvis as far as your hand can reach.
Inferior Border of the Costal Cartilage of Ribs 7 to 10 (Transverse Abdominus)
Strokes
r
Placing the thumbs just lateral to the xiphoid process, apply short, side-to-side strokes along the inferior border of the rib cage to the tip of rib 11.
Abdominal Muscle Attachments on the Ribs
See Figure 9-34 for muscle attachments on the ribs.
Rectus Abdominus
Strokes
r Place your fingers on the costal cartilages of ribs 5 to 7,
next to the xiphoid process.
r
Using short, up-and-down and side-to-side strokes with your fingertips, try to reduce tension in the muscular attachments.
External Obliques
Strokes
r
The attachments for this muscle are on the lower eight ribs, interweaving with the serratus anterior. Place your fingers on rib 5, near the sternum. Perform short, up-and-down and side-to-side strokes on the rib.
r Continue to work the attachments on each rib, in succes-
sion. On each rib, slide your fingers a little further laterally to make contact with the muscle insertion. Use the border of the serratus anterior for a guideline.
Internal Obliques
Strokes
r The muscle attaches on the costal cartilages of ribs 8 to
10. Place your fingers or thumbs along the lower portion of rib 8, just lateral to the rectus abdominus. Apply short, side-to-side and up-and-down strokes on the attachment.
r
Moving slightly lateral, slide down to rib 9. Repeat the same strokes on the attachment and then repeat once more on the rib 10 attachment.
Rectus Abdominus
Origin: Medial tendon from the pubic symphysis, lateral
tendon from the crest of the pubis.
Insertion: Costal cartilages of ribs 5 to 7, xiphoid process. Action: Flexion of the spine, posterior tilt of the pelvis;
compresses abdominal contents.
Strokes
r Place your fingers next to the midline of the upper abdo-
men, just below the rib cage.
r
Using a spreading technique, slide your fingers across the fibers of the muscle (Fig. 9-35). Pause and work on abnormalities in the muscle tissue with side-to-side strokes. Address trigger points as they are found. Continue, working in strips, down the rectus abdominus. Be sure to palpate the tendinous sheath between each section of the muscle.
Avoid pressure on the linea alba, which is the fas­cial line running down the midline of the rectus
abdominus that joins its right and left halves. The aorta runs down the center of the trunk just deep to this area. If you feel a strong pulse under your fingers when massaging the rectus abdominus, immediately move off it.

Be sure that the client is comfortable with this pro-
cedure before attempting it. Describe the move to the client and establish permission in the presession inter­view. Then repeat this question during the session before proceeding.

Action: Flexion of the trunk (bilaterally), lateral flexion
of the trunk and rotation of the trunk (unilaterally), support and compression of abdominal viscera; assists in exhalation.
Strokes
r Begin lateral to the border of the rectus abdominus. Do a
spreading stroke, with your fingers across the direction of the fibers, as described above. Remember that the fibers of the external obliquus angle on a lateral diagonal, so cross-fiber strokes on the muscle are performed on a medial diagonal perpendicular to the fibers (Fig. 9-36A). The fibers of the internal obliquus angle on a medial diagonal, so cross-fiber strokes on the muscle are performed on a lateral diagonal that is perpendicular to the fibers (Fig. 9-36B).
r Continue outward to the lateral border of the latissimus
dorsi on the side of the body. Cover the muscles thor­oughly, pausing at tender areas and working in detail on tissues that feel aberrant. It is important to visualize the muscle you are working on under your fingers to be able to palpate it effectively, because the abdominal muscles overlap each other.
DAR
A
Transverse Abdominus
Origin: Lateral third of the inguinal ligament, anterior
two-thirds of the lip of the iliac crest, thoracolumbar fascia, costal cartilages of ribs 7 to 12.
Insertion: Abdominal aponeurosis to the linea alba. Action: Compresses the abdomen, assists in forced
exhalation.
Strokes
r Place your fingers next to the lateral border of the rectus
abdominus, facing in a superior direction. Apply short, up-and-down strokes across the muscle fibers, covering the area between the base of the rib cage and the iliac crest thoroughly (Fig. 9-37).
Quadratus Lumborum
Origin: Inner lip of the iliac crest, iliolumbar ligament. Insertion: Lower border of the 12th rib, transverse process
of L1–L4 vertebrae.
Action: Extension of the lumbar spine (bilaterally), lateral
flexion of the spine (unilaterally), fixation and depres­sion of the 12th rib.
Trigger points in the superficial layer of the muscle are located in the lateral section, with
one near the attachment on the 12th rib and the other near the attachment on the iliac crest. Pain from the 12th rib attachment point is referred along the iliac crest and gluteus medius region. The referral zone for the iliac crest attachment point is to the greater tro­chanter and outer thigh area.
Two trigger points in the deeper layer are found near the transverse process of L3 and between the transverse processes of L4 and L5. The trigger point at L3 refers pain to the sacroiliac joints and across the upper sacral region. The second trigger point lower down refers pain to the lower gluteal area.

Position
r Place the client in side posture. Place a bolster between
the knees and a small support under the side of the head. A bolster may also be placed between the side of the client’s waist and the table. Have the client stretch the topmost arm overhead.
r The therapist stands behind the client.
Strokes
r
Place your front hand on the client’s hip for support. Using the heel of your back hand, do deep, circular friction on the muscles from the 12th rib to the iliac crest.
r
Slide your thumbs upward, along the lateral border of the erector spinae, until the 12th rib is felt. Using the thumbs or a knuckle, do short, side-to-side strokes across the un­derside of the rib to the spine. It is likely that knotted areas and trigger points will be found here.
r
Turn to face the iliac crest. Apply short, side-to-side strokes along the superior border of the iliac crest with the knuckle or thumbs, pausing at tender points.
r Standing behind the client’s waist, place both palms on
the side of the torso with the thumbs pointed downward toward the spine. Finding the edge of the erector spinae, slide the thumbs slightly anterior, and press downward toward the transverse processes of the spine (Fig. 9-38). Be careful not to push into the tips of the bones. Perform short, up-and-down and side-to-side strokes along the quadratus lumborum. Work between the 12th rib and the iliac crest.
STRETCH
1.
Quadratus Lumborum and Obliques. The client is lying in side posture and slides to the edge of the table near the therapist. The bottom leg is flexed at the knee. The top leg is straight, and the uppermost arm is stretched overhead, grasping the end of the table. Place one hand on the client’s uppermost arm and the other hand on the client’s top leg.
The straightened top leg is positioned behind the bottom leg so that it can hang off the side of the table. As you push down on the top arm, press the leg toward the floor until a stretch is felt in the quadratus lumborum (Fig. 9-39).
2.
Rectus Abdominus. The client is lying supine and slides the heels toward the hips, keeping the feet flat on the table and with both knees flexed. The arms are stretched overhead, reaching toward the head of the table (Fig. 9-40). If further stretch is required, a bolster may be slid under the client’s back.
ACCESSORY WORK
1.
This work should be done in conjunction with the pelvic session.
2. Reflexologists claim that the solar plexus reflex point is located on the sole of the left foot slightly inferior to the bases of the metatarsal bones of the first through third toes (Fig. 9-41). Pressing this point is intended to bring relaxation to the upper abdominal region.

r
Reach across the table, and place your fingers lateral to the ascending colon, on the right side of the client’s abdomen (Fig. 9-43). Gently draw the fingers inward, against the edge of the large intestine, without gliding over the skin. Continue tracing the border of the colon with your fingers, pulling it away from the outer edge of the abdomen until you reach the midline of the body. Walk around to the right side of the table, and continue pulling the fingers inward, along the border of the large intestine, until you reach the left ASIS.
r
Beginning at the ileocecal valve, do slow, circular fingertip friction over the large intestine, tracing its entire length around the abdominal cavity (Fig. 9-44).

The client is in side posture, with a small pillow under the head. The leg lying against the table is slightly flexed. The top leg is flexed 90°, with a bolster placed under the knee.
r The therapist is standing behind the client’s hip.
POLARITY
Place the palm of your top hand on the client’s hip and your bottom hand on the side of the knee. Breathe deeply and rhythmically, envisioning the client’s thigh area relaxing between your two hands. Hold for at least 30 seconds.
SHIATSU
1.
Top Leg. Using your forearm, perform shiatsu compression movements along the side of the hip, from the iliac crest to the greater trochanter (Fig. 9-47). Both you and the client should exhale each time you lean your forearm into the hip. Continue the compression movements down the side of the leg to the knee. The gallbladder channel traverses this area.
2.
Bottom Leg. Using your palm or the tiger’s mouth position of the hand (the webbing between the thumb and index finger), perform shiatsu compression move­ments on the inner thigh, from the pelvis to the knee (Fig. 9-48).
Continue to move with the thumb tip across the foot in a horizontal direction toward the medial side, covering all points. To access the next strip of points, begin again on the lateral edge of the foot, above the first horizontal line. Repeat the sequence until the entire zone is covered. Switch hands, and repeat the entire sequence, with the exception of the ileocecal point, on the left foot.
