46-Birth

Birth plays a decisive role in individual development, influencing various aspects of life. Each experience of rebirth, whether physical or symbolic, can evoke bodily memories, sometimes requiring release work on tensions in the body tissue. This process involves compression and decompression techniques, particularly at the level of the parietals and the pelvis, to re-establish respiratory disengagement. The osteopathic approach considers these memories essential for promoting spiritual movement and harmonious bodily dynamics.

The role of the spleen and the vascular system is fundamental during birth, as it allows for rebalancing between the heart, lungs, and umbilical cord. The first cry and the first breath mark a crucial transition to respiratory autonomy, illustrating a major fluid change. If this stage is not properly achieved, splenic characteristics may manifest, impacting the individual's emotional health. The coordination of movements between cranial structures, particularly between the parietal and temporal bones, as well as the rotation of the neck, are essential to facilitate this vital transition, highlighting the importance of a holistic approach in supporting birth and development.
