The Amazing Health Benefits of Stomach Massage (Evidence Based) was last modified: March 26th, 2019 by Jenny Hills, Nutritionist and Medical Writer
Abdominal massage is a technique that has been used by multiple cultures since the time of the ancients. Palpating the belly has been thought to promote health and wellness in many ways, including pain relief, stress relief, and overall improvement of the functioning of the digestive tract.
Abdominal massage doesn’t require a lot of hard work, and it’s easy to incorporate it into your daily life in order to facilitate lifelong wellness of both the body and the mind.
The methodology behind abdominal massage is surprisingly simple, and the many benefits that can be reaped from such an easy set of steps make it worth the five minutes the process takes out of each day.
Dr. Stephen Chang is a medical doctor trained in the arts of both Western and Eastern medicine, and he has devised a quick and easy method for applying abdominal massage so that anyone can do it—in less than five minutes per day.
Dr. Chang recommends that the two-minute abdominal massage be performed routinely twice per day, after waking and right before you go to sleep.
Dr. Chang mentions that most people see noticeable results within 1 week of consistent practice.
Abdominal massage produces many health benefits, and not all of them are limited to the tummy area. This process can heal momentary ailments such as constipation and bloating, and when performed regularly, abdominal massage can be a contributing factor to lifelong wellness.
Abdominal massage using essential oils can help aid in weight loss. A study concluded that “Aromatherapy massage could be utilized as an effective intervention to reduce abdominal subcutaneous fat, waist circumference, and to improve body image in post-menopausal women.”

Bloated feelings often arise when our metabolism becomes impeded in some way. Performing abdominal massage can help to regulate metabolic function and reduce the build-up of wastes in the body (which contribute to bloating), leading to relief from uncomfortable bloating.
According to a research published in the International Journal of Nursing Studies, abdominal massage can provide all-natural relief from troubling constipation and associated abdominal pain.
By using daily abdominal massage, you can eliminate existing constipation and help prevent it from recurring.
The tummy massage outlined by Dr. Chang can help with more transient woes like constipation and bloating, but regular utilization of the technique can also help with maintaining gastrointestinal health over the long term.
By increasing stimulation of blood flow to the abdominal region and physically stimulating the intestines, you can help keep your digestive system running at peak efficiency by adding abdominal massage to your daily regimen.
Recent research published in the journal of Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine showed that abdominal massage using aromatherapy oils (clove, cinnamon, lavender and rose) may help reduce painful menstrual cramps and lighten problematic heavy menstrual bleeding when performed during the week prior to expected menstruation.
Try using a few drops of these essential oils mixed with a tablespoon of carrier oil when performing abdominal massage to see if this method helps you.
You can find more information on how to use essential oils in my e-Book Magical Aromatherapy.
The practice of abdominal massage can contribute not only to various aspects of physical wellness, but to psychological well-being too . Some people have found that abdominal massage, like many other forms of massage, provides peace of mind and relief from stress.
After all, when you can eliminate physical ailments and make your body feel better, your mind is sure to follow suit!
Pushing on those abdominal muscles twice per day can also help to improve abdominal muscle tone. That’s right – this relaxing and relieving massage could actually help tighten your tummy as well as providing a long list of accompanying health benefits. What have you got to lose except excess waste and excess weight?

It should be noted that abdominal massage is strongly contraindicated for some people. People who should avoid abdominal massage include the following:
As you can see, abdominal massage has many perks, and is so simple to do that even the busiest person can make it a part of his or her daily routine. Through regular practice, abdominal massage can quickly and easily become yet another way to incorporate natural healing methods into your life to help you stay happy and healthy over your entire life span.
Whether you want relief from maladies like constipation, sluggish metabolic function or menstrual cramps , or you just want a simple way to incorporate natural, chemical-free healing into your life, abdominal massage is a fast and painless way to help you achieve your health and wellness goals.
does it matter if you massage clock-wise or counter clock-wise? right or left hand?
I’ve seen references recommend to use a clockwise motion when massaging the belly as this follows the workings of the intestine. Other references say that to help stop diarrhea, you need to reverse the rubbing direction, i.e. rub in counterclockwise circles. You can use either hand for the massage.
Abdominal massage has really helped me with my IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) pain. Thank you for such an amazing article Jenny!
Just had an appendix surgery two months now and went for an abdominal massage is it okay? Am kinda scared
Hi Annette, you need to listen to your body – if you still feel any pain or tenderness in the area, then probably it will make sense to wait more time before having a belly massage.
how does the abdominal massage affect people with gallstones ( and those that were recommended not to use it )
Hi Tessa, some of the symptoms of gallstones include abdominal pain and cramps, tenderness or feeling of fullness or bloating in the abdomen, so doing an abdominal massage can aggravate these symptoms.

This article is useful for those who want to learn how to do self abdominal massage. Generally speaking, self-abdominal massage is something that your practitioner may recommend you do at home in addition to undertaking a course of treatment with a specialist at Perfect Balance Clinic. You may be suffering from uncomfortable bloating constipation or other digestive discomfort and had a thorough medical assessment with one of the teams at Perfect Balance Clinic before you start carrying out this technique on your stomach.
Looking around the internet there are many forms of abdominal massage. Most of the articles we come across are written to allow the basic use of the technique at home we feel it’s important that anyone carrying out these techniques at home has a detailed understanding of the anatomical regions they’re able to influence with the use of this technique and others. It is also vital to know that you have a type of constipation or bloating that will respond to self-massage. It is always advisable to seek advice before learning how to do self abdominal massage.
Whilst there are many forms of abdominal massage we tend to carry out abdominal massage techniques based on sound anatomical principles and structures inside the abdominal cavity. There are as with most abdominal massage techniques things that you need to pay particular attention to as they may affect the success of the technique and you learning how to do self-abdominal massage techniques.
Should you know that you suffer from any of the following conditions you should not carry out self-abdominal massage as this may be contraindicated and as such may cause harm to one’s self. Some of the conditions listed here are definite reasons why you would not do a self-abdominal massage but some are reasons that you may want to seek advice on prior to the self-administering abdominal massage to one’s abdomen.
There are particular times when abdominal self-massage may not be suitable and indeed contraindicated all the techniques may require modification. It is advisable if you suffer from any of these possible conditions to consult with a practitioner i f you have any questions.
The technique described here for learning how to do self abdominal massage is a very easy technique so that you can reduce one’s own bloating and begin feeling a little lighter and a little freer in one’s stomach and digestive system.
The position that you need to be in is resting on one’s back with one’s knees bent up and preferably supported with a pillow or a rolled-up towel for support under your knees. This is mainly so that the muscles in one’s stomach region are more relaxed and less resistant to you carrying out the massage techniques. The position will make it much easier to move one’s digestive system and allow a flowing movement to occur during one’s self-abdominal massage. This is vital for the technique to be effective as the digestive system also works in a very rhythmic fashion called peristalsis. This allows you to work with one’s digestive system not against it and thus encouraging the return of normal function. One may also choose to work through their clothes as this may be more convenient at times when you cannot work directly onto the skin and abdominal wall. By having one’s head slightly raised also can assist in relaxing the anterior abdominal wall and the upper chest region which may also affect the outcome of the technique.
The direction of movement in one’s hands needs to follow a clockwise direction (once the stomach has been cleared by working lightly the other way (anti-clockwise) this helps to unblock the stomach ahead of working in a clockwise manner) to replicate the flow in one’s digestive system. The easier of the two areas to work on is the large intestine region and one can achieve some significant improvement in symptoms of bloating and digestive pain by improving the flow of digestion through the large intestine. It is through doing this we can indirectly affect the stomach and small intestines as you may be reducing the backlog in the large intestines and thus improving the overall transit time in the small and the large intestine.
Before one starts learning how to do self abdominal massage and carrying out abdominal self-massage it is important to understand a few landmarks on the lower stomach region. This will allow you to understand where to start and stop treatments as well as what direction to move around the stomach in. Generally, the depth of pressure is about 1 to 2 cm. This allows you to put enough pressure on the stomach/colon to encourage the digestive system to begin to start to move. Generally, more pressure than this may result in abdominal pain or discomfort should you experience any pain or discomfort please stop and contact us for any help or advice with these techniques or getting a clear understanding of conditions affecting your stomach that may be affecting you before you learn how to do the self abdominal massage yourself.
If you divide the abdominal region into 9 equal boxes this allows you to understand the main regions of the stomach area and indeed the area that you’ll be working in. These boxes are often referred to as 9 quadrants, each containing specific organs which you may need to be aware of if you were carrying out this self-abdominal massage technique yourself, without any guidance.
When looking at your stomach the other boxes are bounded by the lower ribs and diaphragm region. These three quadrants contain the specific organs related to the early stages of digestion and the organ related to the immune system. The upper right quadrant contains the spleen and splenic flexure of the descending colon, care should be taken here if any discomfort or swelling is present in this region as it may relate to underlying pathology. The upper left quadrant contains the Liver, gallbladder, and the hepatic flexure of the ascending colon. These are important landmarks for self-massage of the abdominal region. The central quadrant above the umbilical area but below the ribs contains the transverse colon, the stomach part of the liver the duodenum, and the esophagus. This has a particular interest as it may be related to sliding or rolling Hiatus Hernia and may result in episodes of bloating or digestive discomfort. Other conditions affecting this region may be duodenal ulcers or gastric ulcers, gastritis, or other conditions related to the stomach esophagus duodenum and sometimes the liver. These upper quadrants are called anatomically in relation to the regions that they are close to. The central quadrant is called the Epigastric region. Therefore the left and right quadrants are often called the left and right hypochondrial regions.
As you move down into the next 3 quadrants the contents become a little bit fewer which makes it easier to understand if there’s any pain in these regions which organs this may relate to. From left to right the regions are called left lumbar, Umbilical, and right lumbar regions. the left lumbar region contains the descending colon the umbilical region contains mostly the small intestines and the right lumbar region contains the ascending colon.
Of particular importance to the technique and learning how to do self abdominal massage, the left, and right Iliac regions that lie underneath the left and right lumbar regions contain digestive related organs. The central quadrants in the lower part of the stomach are called the hypogastric region this area can contain small intestines but largely begins to contain more pelvic organs and in women, the upper part of the uterus may sometimes be palpable here and occasionally a distended bladder may be palpable in this region as well.
Generally, most massage techniques will focus on the starting point being the right lower abdominal region within the right iliac crest region when you actually start working on the stomach. So looking down at your stomach the right hip and just above here about two finger distances away from the bony prominence on the outer right hip is where you start from ( but don’t start here yet – read on to find out why)
If you think of the digestive system as being a tube and the tube been full of fecal matter or contents you would understand that before carrying out any abdominal massage is firstly important to try and clear any contents that may be accumulated in the more terminal parts of that tube. this allows us not to create any further backlog or congestion when working to improve the digestive system transit through the large intestines. It is therefore important to start at the end of the colon working backward from the left iliac fossa where the sigmoid colon is located up the left lumbar region to the left hypogastric region across the stomach to the right side and down through the right lumbar region to the start of the ascending colon. Generally, as fecal matter becomes more concentrated through the transit in the digestive system and the colon, in particular, It is imperative to try and remove or soften fecal matter already accumulated in the sigmoid descending colon and a transverse colon before working on the ascending colon. Symptoms of discomforts may arise if this is not carried out due to faecal impaction.
With this clearing technique, it may be possible to eliminate a lot of the obstruction occurring in the sigmoid ascending and transverse colon which may in itself alleviate a lot of discomforts causing abdominal bloating or constipation. This can be of great benefit in anyone suffering from abdominal discomfort related to these conditions.
The next stage of the technique when learning how to do self-abdominal massage requires the previous anatomical knowledge mentioned as well as a thorough understanding of the reasons why you may be experiencing pain or discomfort within your stomach. As the first stage is relatively light and slow circular movements are used to aid peristaltic movement in the digestive system it is important to realise the second stage requires a little bit more pressure however the same small circular movements are used to stimulate peristaltic movement in the digestive system, in particular, the large intestine.
Within this stage, we would hope to apply enough pressure to allow us to go to a depth of 1 to 2 inches. this will allow is enough pressure to stimulate gradual peristaltic movement within the large intestine and hopefully to stimulate greater peristaltic movement in a clockwise direction around the abdominal wall thus stimulating normal digestive transit.
Once you’ve located this region the depth of pressure should be very light to start with and strokes should be slow and flow to replicate peristaltic movement within the digestive system and large colon. You need to take a little bit of care in this region as
