Digestive Discomforts
Acupuncture helps to alleviate digestive conditions by promoting better balance and flow of energy, or "qi," within the body. Specific points along the body's meridian pathways stimulate the release of endorphins and regulate the autonomic nervous system. This can lead to reduced stress and inflammation, which are often contributing factors to digestive problems like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or acid reflux.
Acupuncture also enhances blood circulation to the digestive organs, improving their function and reducing symptoms such as bloating, abdominal pain, and irregular bowel movements, thereby providing potential relief for various digestive ailments. The following conditions may be helped through the use of acupuncture:
IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome)
Acid Reflux & Heartburn
Nausea & Vomiting
Gastrointestinal pain
Constipation & Diarrhea
IBDs (Inflammatory Bowel Diseases)
