Acupuncture for Digestive Disorders
March 10th, 2009
Many digestive disorders can be effectively treated with acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine. Dietary pattern changes that incorporate more healthful foods can also aid in detoxifying and restoring the digestive system during acupuncture therapy.
Maintaining healthy digestion is an essential component to general health and well being. Imbalances in the digestive system indicate an imbalance present in the body’s overall constitution.
Traditional Chinese medicine utilizes acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine to nourish the organs, strengthen qi flow, tonify the blood, and balance yin and yang. Moxibustion, the burning of a cone or stick of mugwort or other medicinal herbs over the affected body region or selected acupuncture points may also be integrated into acupuncture therapy to treat digestive imbalances.
Acupuncture and moxibustion can reduce stomach and pancreas inflammation, treat many gastro-intestinal conditions, tonify deficient conditions, and warm up cold conditions. Acupuncture can effectively treat most digestive disorders, including: Hiatus hernia syndrome, food allergies, heartburn, peptic ulcers, bacterial infections, and lactose intolerance.
Digestive disorders are caused by imbalance between the body organs responsible for digestion. Stress and dietary factors can put a strain on the digestive system. When negative lifestyle factors contribute to digestive strain over a long period of time, digestive disorders can often develop. Your acupuncture physician may recommend lifestyle factor changes and diet modification to assist in treating your digestive disorder.
When combined with a nutritional diet and stress reduction, acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine can restore healthy functioning of the digestive system. Acupuncture also treats the symptoms associated with digestive disorders, such as dry skin, anemia, fatigue, concentration difficulties, muscle cramps, weight loss, low energy, and hair loss.
Acupuncture for digestive disorders selects specific acupuncture points on the body that speed up metabolism, reduce gastric acid secretion, increase gastrointestinal muscle contraction and relaxation, restore stomach acidity to normal levels, and regulate small and large intestine function. Acupuncture therapy also strengthens the immune system and enhances overall wellness.
