If we take a close look at digestive disorders, we might be surprised to discover that even western
medicine acknowledges that diet and stress play a large part in the development of digestive
conditions and even further that diet and stress management can make a difference in those
conditions. Guess we, western and eastern medicine, have something in common after all. Maybe
it is time to explore some eastern wisdom.
Our approach
- Chinese herbal medicine: One of the most beneficial method that we have found in
practice, especially when it comes more complicated conditions, such as IBS, Crohn’s
disease, ulcerative colitis.
- Acupuncture: We have noticed good results of acupuncture in common digestive
disorders, such as abdominal pain, heartburn, constipation, and side-effects of
chemotherapy. Additionally, we often give patients Korean hand acupuncture therapy
(pellets) in the intervals of treatment.
- Moxibustion: Most clients enjoy the warm it generates. This is great for deficient and cold
type of conditions.
Advice from TCM perspective
We can’t get you better without your co-operation. We would suggest you change some dietary
habit of yours.
- Icy food should be avoided. It is good to have warm food or at least room temperature.
- Proper cooked and processed food is highly recommended.
- Have regular meals every day, i.e. regular amount at regular time.
- Try to avoid too much stimulant, such spicy, chilly, alcohol, sugar, etc. When you can’t
avoid, try to have them in moderation.
