Digestion
Digestive disorders can present with a range of obvious digestive problems such as bloating, wind, cramping, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, constipation, diarrhoea, a feeling of incompletion or difficulty passing stool, acid reflux (heartburn), food sensitivities/allergies etc. They can also lead to systemic imbalances that begin to show up with signs like fatigue, joint pain, systemic inflammation, anemia, colds and flues, low immunity, allergies and skin disorders. Most people suffering with IBS and other digestive disorders are told that they just have to live with their complaints and that they cant really be helped....This is where acupuncture fits in.
Digestive disorders are normally an overall health imbalance. They are quite often the result of high stress and bad dietary habits that overtime develop into chronic digestive disorders. Acupuncture points on the body are well known to reduce abdominal pain, bloating and intestinal inflammation, regulate stomach acid secretion, stop chronic diarrhoea or in the case of chronic constipation, increase bowel movements. It can basically regulate the overall digestive function and with the necessary dietary and lifestyle changes, can break the cycle of inflammation and repair the damage in the Gut.
Acupuncture can successfully treat: acid reflux, heartburn, bloating, constipation, diarrhoea, haemorrhoids, IBS, nausea & food sensitivities.
