Modern science has shown how gut-health is far more complex than once thought and that it can influence so many areas of our health.
A healthy gut contributes to the state of our immune system, affects the quality of our mood and emotional state, can influence our brain, heart and skin health and can even prevent and contribute to the healing of certain autoimmune conditions.
Research into the effects of the Vagus nerve has also contributed to the increasing popular notion that the Gut actually functions as our second brain!
For this reason more and more people are asking the question ~ how can I improve my gut health?
Rebalance Wellness provides Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine services to many individuals seeking relief from digestive issues such as IBS, chronic constipation, SIBO, parasitic infections, colitis, reflux and so much more.
Chinese Medicine has asserted for thousands of years that our overall health relies on digestion. In ancient text it refers to the digestive system as our “Earth”, and it is from our Earth that our health is cultivated. So we must keep this system within the body flourishing and in balance in order to thrive.
Everything we put into our body influences us ~ from the food and water we ingest to the air we breathe, and right down to the emotions that we digest.
We must also consider the environment that you are eating in as well ~ are you eating on the go, rushed and distracted?
It may sound simple… but these little things can, over time, ultimately disrupt our digestion ~ especially if it is predisposed to weakening factors such as autoimmune conditions or bacterial imbalances.
Each body is ultimately unique ~ this means that there will not be a ‘one diet fits all’ approach.
During an Acupuncture initial appointment, the practitioner will conduct a thorough intake to discover what unique presentation you have. From there the treatment plan will be created and can include anything from Acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, Infra-red heat therapy, Acupressure protocols, and dietary and lifestyle advice.
