Acupuncture for bloating

 

Abdominal bloating is uncomfortable and can even be painful as fluid and/or food stagnates in the digestive system and  there is a build up of gas. It can happen after over eating or eating certain foods that make you bloat easily. Irregular food intake may be a factor. The digestive system works best with routine and regularity. That’s why it can be upset when you’re travelling or out of your normal routine . It can also be chronic and in women it may be fluid retention before menstruation.

Chinese Medicine knows different kinds of bloating have different causes. So they will be treated differently. Acupuncture combined with dietary and life style advice can be very effective in resolving abdominal bloating.
