Supportive Care for Digestive Health
Celiac disease is something I see often in the clinic, whether a chronic condition or a sudden onset. It requires strict gluten avoidance, but the symptoms can sometimes persist even with dietary changes. Acupuncture offers support to calm the digestive system.
Supportive Care for Digestive Health
Celiac disease requires strict gluten avoidance, but symptoms and inflammation may persist even with dietary changes. Acupuncture offers supportive care to calm the digestive system, ease discomfort, and promote healing.
Common Symptoms of Celiac Disease
- Bloating, gas, and wind
- Bowel irregularities like diarrhoea
- Abdominal pain or cramping
- Fatigue and brain fog
- Nutrient deficiencies
- Mental health challenges
How Acupuncture Helps
By treating the unique person, acupuncture balances your body's energy, creating a better version of yourself. Typically, the stomach and spleen are treated, but this isn't always the case. Each treatment is tailored based on your experience of your health, but acupuncture can:
- Calms digestive inflammation
- Supports nutrient absorption by working on the spleen and stomach
- Improve energy and mental cognition
- Balances mood and stress
I have loved visiting Josh for my acupuncture appointments. He has created a safe, warm space that feels spiritual / chatty / friendly / healing all at the same time. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.
