Our approach is to look at the body from the perspective of Chinese Medicine, we look at your body as a whole. Every person is unique and we’re always changing. Every digestive issue is also different and always changing. We take this into account with our treatments. We tailor each treatment to each individual and modify treatment approaches as changes occur and as people start getting better. In this way, we can get to the root of the issue rather simply masking symptoms. Our aim is for lasting and sustainable health through effective treatments, and education.
When digestive symptoms become frequent, there may be a larger issue that needs to be addressed. Common digestive problems include:
heartburn or acid reflux
bloating
irritable bowel syndrome
intestinal bacterial imbalance.
More chronic disorders include:
SIBO
ulcers
colitis
Crohn’s disease
stomach cancer
diverticulitis
colorectal cancer.
Symptoms do vary and may include stomach pain, cramps, nausea, vomiting, bloating, gas, constipation, diarrhea, and a change in appetite.
Causes can be widespread and may include emotional stress, poor dietary habits antibiotic or drug use, toxin exposure, or hiatal hernia.
Using Acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, diagnostic testing, and nutritional therapy are treatments that are effective to provide quick relief from symptoms while addressing the underlying cause of the condition.
