A variety of factors, including chronic stress and a high-fat diet as the most common culprits, are attributed to causing digestive disorders. Acupuncture is a holistic approach to medical care and assists in resolving digestive issues by reducing stress, reducing inflammation of related organs, and regulating the endocrine and nervous system imbalances that accompany gastrointestinal disorders. During treatment, acupuncture points will be targeted to address metabolism, increase or decrease gastrointestinal muscle contraction, regulate intestinal function, and restore stomach normal acidity.
Conventional medicine’s approach to treating digestive problems is most often to stop the symptoms with drugs, and not deal with the root of the problem. Acupuncturists will relieve the discomfort associated with gastrointestinal disorders but will also work to modulate the entire digestive system since they approach health as regulating balance, and therefore functionality, in the whole body. Patients who use acupuncture to treat digestive problems often not only enjoy long-term symptomatic relief but also increased energy and less stress as well.
