A The Integral Stress Test
The pelvic torsion
First, test yourself or your partner or patient for the presence of pelvic torsion:
1. hip flexor (iliopsoas): While lying down, pull or push both knees in succession, as far as you can (!), up to your chest. Lifting the stretched, opposite leg indicates shortening.
2. hip abductors (adductors): Then, while lying down with hips and knees flexed, place both feet and use your fingers to check the front pelvic spines are at the same height.
Then, one after the other, drop both knees outward. With one hand, hold each other’s pelvic spines as you do so.
Variations of Stress-Induced Tension
Stress can cause varying patterns of tension in the hip flexors and adductors, which may present as unilateral, bilateral, or shifting as the body progresses toward centering and stabilization.
•In cases of milder stress, tension is often localized in the right adductors.
•Residual tension can also result from structural issues such as a pubic symphysis misalignment or sacroiliac (SI) joint blockage.
The Integral Stress Test
1. the navel reflex
Then touch your navel and repeat both tests simultaneously with the help of your other hand or your partner.
Touching the navel must always resolve the pelvic tangles. If not, there is in most cases a superordinate energetic interference field in your aura. Often, even the touch is unpleasant. After the treatment the pelvis is always, but usually only temporarily relaxed, but afterwards the navel functions again as a central relaxation point.
2. the stress reflex
In Integral Orthopedics, I call all zones whose touch triggers a resolution of the pelvic torsion a interference or disturbance focus. . In order to recognize these, you touch one after the other: your neck, your flank, your jaw and your eyes as well as existing scars. These must be completely covered, if possible also by a partner.
Touching these regions relaxes the pelvis if there is a state of stress or an active source of disturbance there, whose inharmonious vibrations you temporarily eliminate by covering them. Now it becomes a bit more complicated. Testing also works with appropriate focusing through the body layers, for example, with the, very important peritoneal scars or perineal scars after childbirth.
3. the aura reflex
If the touch does not lead to a pelvic relaxation, there is either no interference focus or an additional disturbance mostly by a interference or disturbance field in the energetic field of the body. Often the touch or approach of this region especially the frontal neck is experienced by the patient as unpleasant and therapists often feel something conspicuous. If the touch of navel, neck or scars don’t relaxe the pelvis approach your hand from a distance of about one meter and hold it at the border, when you and the patient feel a change of your mood or slight pressure. After a while test the pelvis again. If you have released a stress in the aura the pelvis is temporarily relaxed now. After recurrence of pelvic torsion, the touch of either navel, neck or scares gives now a relaxation of the pelvis and indicates the need for further treatment.
Shoulder Test
Testing for Autonomous Stress Mode While Standing
To evaluate whether the body is in a vegetative stress mode also a simple test involving shoulder movement can be conducted:
1.Stand upright and observe the ability to spread the arms while keeping the shoulder blades fixed.
2.Asymmetrical fascial tension can be identified if one arm has limited spread compared to the other. This tension often exists alongside or independently of pelvic torsion (PT).
3.When with touching the navel or a source of desorder the autonomic nervous system (ANS) is relieved temporarily, the shoulder movement should be apparently better. If not either the fixation in the shoulder is due to fibrosis of the fascial structures or to an overloadin the aura, mostly of the neck. This can be differentiated bt trying the aura release. After the treatment the asymmetry in the shoulder movement typically resolves parallel with the release of PT.
In some cases, the shoulder wringing persists even after PT is corrected. This residual asymmetry may indicate an unresolved source of irritation in the upper body, requiring further attention.
B The Faszial Integration Therapy ( FIT)
Follow the delicate vibrations of warmth spreading and cultivate the pleasure of this kind of relaxation and recreation through closeness to yourself and others. You may have more time for this now.
The changes you notice at the beginning are probably rather delicate and inconspicuous, because we do not feel the vegetative nervous system and also a pelvic torsion so strongly. Also, for a complete resolution of the Bv and the pain associated with it, it also needs the release of the pubic symphysis and the ISG as well as the lowest rib with the quadratus lumborum muscle, as I also describe in the book and on the website. But you will feel more relaxed, upright and able to bear weight. Your immune system, internal organs and nerves will recover and your vitality will return. However, depending on what interference or trauma fields you are releasing, the reaction can be very strong in the positive sense.
1. Navel Integration
Place one hand on your abdomen and very gently push the navel with the middle finger in the softest direction that also triggers a deep breath. The other hand directs the energy hypothetically released in the belly and the wisdom stored in the navel and belly to zones in need of energy and harmonization. To do this, first place your second hand on the causally and functionally superior disturbance and stress zones. Especially important, also for daily relaxation, are the neck because of its connection with the vagus nerve and the flanks because of the adrenal glands, kidneys, dorsal fascia, quadratus lumborum muscle and abdominal organs. Also all disturbing scars should be harmonized.
Then, if necessary, you can place the second hand on areas of pain and tension. With the fingers of this hand, you can also:
• Relieve joints by gently pushing the more distant joint partner in the relaxing direction.
• Loosen fascia adhesions by pressing them firmly or gently melting them, depending on your needs.
• Harmonize organs by consciously contacting them.
2. The scar integration
Disturbing scars are covered in their entire course, if necessary step by step with one hand, while the other hand performs the navel integration. The ortho-bionomic disruption has an even more lasting effect by gently pushing the scar in the pleasant direction, if necessary also by a partner. You can then perform the navel integration at the same time.
The photo above shows the self-treatment of a superficial cesarean section scar. Also the deep scar in the peritoneum running longitudinally between the navel and the transverse scar and, if necessary, the scar of the uterus can be relieved by focusing and moving the scar in the imagination in the, always clearly felt, free direction. It is very important that you do not forget any scar. However, you only need to treat the scars that are disturbing in the stress test.
The photo below shows the unblocking of a cardiac scar with simultaneous navel flank grip.
In pure scar integration, you relax a scar with one hand and place the other hand on an area of pain or tension. This is most effective if you have found out which scar is responsible for which discomfort during the interference focus test.
3. The aura releif
Old traumas, including scars, but also everyday stress and stress from other people can have an effect on the energetic environment of the body, the so-called aura, by storing unprocessed emotional vibrations in the fascia system and also leave energetic interference fields there, which can burden the body and psyche unnoticed. From the point of view of traditional Chinese medicine, there is then a disturbance in the area of the external „Qi“. This is treated with positions that are also used in Qi Gong. Hold your wide open hands in front of your belly or neck as if you wanted to hug a tree. This is also the name of the corresponding qigong position.
You can feel the limits of the cloud by the fact that the air seems to be a little denser and something feels uncomfortable or oppressive.
You may also directly feel an slight increase in your pain or other uncomfortable symptoms.
The slight compression of the stress cloud probably increases the tension of the vibrations stored in it, so we can feel them. Open then your hands a little farther. The relief that occurs very soon shows that the activated vibrations, along with their own or other people’s unintegrated emotions and other energetic burdens stored in them, are draining away through the hands that are open to the front.
The stress cloud shrinks and you experience not only a corresponding relaxation, but sometimes also the resolution of your assigned complaints and recognize the unprocessed emotions.
Also scars or other injury consequences often have a disturbing interference field, which can hinder a healing. You can relieve it by gently approaching your hand until you or your patient feel the aproaching hand. In this distance fields you again open the stress field by turning your hand slightly outward. until you feel the emotianal and fascial releif. Usually that doesn’t take much more than one minute. Like after each such intervention you can directly observe again a relaxation of the pelvis. However the tension in the pelvis recurrs as long as there is more stress in or outside the body.
Trauma field releif:
If the aura releif doesn’t function, this usually is because the stress field is larger than your hands.
For relieving larger stress or trauma fields a partner or therapist approaches the flat hand focusing on the navel or the heart or another stress region from a distance of several, sometimes more than 20 meters, to the person being treated until both feel an increase in tension and anxiety.
You can also tell the exact distance by the fact that narrowing the hand pushes you back and drawing it back pulls you slightly forward.
Then the partner opens the field by turning his or her body together with the arm for a half circle. Thus the emotions stored within can be relieved and perceived. and. If you ate in a psychotherapy you should do this exercise with your therapist. The treatment not only releases the whole body including the pelvis. It also opens the door to very safely hidden emotions and can be the first step to a new personality and a better life.
If you have no partner or your practise isn’t big enough and you don’t want to go on the street with your patient you or your patient can practise this work also on a mental level:
The mental aura relief:
It offers a possibility to free one’s own energy field from old burdens without a partner or therapist.
In supine position or standing open both arms wide spread as in the aura release.
Now imagine your own hand approaching you from a very large distance. Hen you feel somehow uncomfortable enlargen this distance until exatly the distance where your hand doesn’t bother you. This distance can be up to 50 or sometimes more than hunderd meters. Than lengthen your spreaded arms in your imagination in this distance as if you hold a very big cloud. As your arms are open, the stored emotions can releif and your body can relax.
All these exercises can free your body from the fear, that someone comes to close and open your heart for the light that is waiting behind the your cloud.
