How do you do the massage could you decribe it. I have had adhesion surgery but still have some blockage and constipation. I hope every thing works out for you.

Hello @carlwgordon
You asked about abdominal massage and that made me wonder if you have ever seen a pelvic floor therapist. These therapists are specially trained to help with elimination problems, either urinary or bowel-related. They can give you excellent suggestions for dealing with constipation with exercises, breathing techniques, and abdominal massage.
Might you consider asking for a referral to one of these therapists?

I start at the top of my abdomen and make small circles and press down with the heels of my hands, working all the way down. Nothing too hard. It has really worked for me.
