Our IVT Series is a comprehensive training in hands-on techniques for the viscera.

This series is comprised of 2 courses, each involving a 3-day, hands-on, in-person workshop focused on giving practitioners the skills to assess and treat multiple symptom pictures impacting digestion and other aspects of our physiology.

Since understanding the relevant anatomy and physiology of the organs greatly improves our hands-on work, we provide online lectures in the associated anatomy and physiology to complement our in-person training. Students are expected to review the online materials before our in-person time together.

Note: Priority Registration Price is for a limited time!

  • 2 in-person weekends focused on understanding the rhythms and movement of the viscera and their relationships to each other and the other structures of the body

What Past Students Are Saying About IVT

Don't take our word for it ;-)

Skilled and passionate teacher

S.T., Somatic Experiencing Practitioner | IVT Series (Winter 2026)

"I'm inspired by how Michael weaves in larger concepts and philopsophies into the hands-on work. Michael is a skilled and passionate teacher."

The poetic artistry of teaching

Anonymous Participant | IVT Series (Winter 2026)

"The poetic artistry of teaching and sharing information of the body speaks to my dyslexic squiggly ways. It feels like a classroom that speaks my language."

My hand skills elevate every time

Laura Salvatore, LAc | IVT Series (Winter 2026)

"Truly incredible class and group discussions this weekend. I am so grateful. I trust Michael to constantly blow my mind and love the way he teaches. My hand skills elevate every time."

Presented in a way that makes sense
