Digestive and Gut Health
At Y and Li Acupuncture, Herbal and Chiropractic Clinic, we specialise in providing holistic tailored treatments for patients suffering from digestive and gut problems. Patients with digestive concerns can experience physiological stagnation through stress, poor eating habits or irregular bowel movement.
Hence why, our integrative approach combines acupuncture, herbal remedies, and chiropractic care to address the root causes of these
conditions, and help release yet rebalance your body vitality.​
​
1. Addressing Gut and Digestive concerns
​
Digestive issues can stem from everyday lifestyle choices, such as poor eating habits, lack of exercise, hormonal fluctuations, or changes in routine. While some individuals may only experience occasional bloating or nausea, others might endure chronic pain linked to an underlying condition. Nonetheless, these symptoms can cause immense stress and discomfort if not treated.
​
Symptoms that patients can experience:
-
Bloating
-
Diarrhea
-
irregular bowel movement
-
Heartburn
-
Nausea and vomiting
-
Excessive burping and flatulence
-
Loss of Appetite
​
Some underlying conditions include:
-
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
-
Celiac disease
-
Crohn’s disease
-
Hemorrhoids
-
Gastro esophageal reflux disorder (GERD)
-
Gallstones
​
Western medicine usually approaches these conditions using medicine, surgery, and dietary recommendations but in TCM we naturally heal the body by improving circulation and unblocking stagnation in the body.

2. How Acupuncture and Herbal Remedies help digestive issues:
​
​
Acupuncture and herbal medicine works as a perfect combination if your aim is to strengthen your gut motility. In Chinese medicine, the digestive system is considered the foundation of life, as it absorbs essential nutrients crucial for maintaining good health. Any imbalances in the digestive system can significantly impact our mood regulation, immune function, and energy levels. This is why acupuncture and herbal medicine have been used for decades, as they naturally support and restore the body’s processes in a non-invasive manner.

Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a practice where very fine needles are inserted into precise points on the body to address a variety of health issues. Acupuncture activates nerves and connecting tissue that help improve blood circulation, reduces inflammation and alleviates stress. By improving blood flow and balancing the body’s functions, acupuncture promotes better digestion and overall gut health.

Herbal Tea
Herbal tea is available in a concentrated powder form. It can boost the effectiveness of treatment when combined with acupuncture. These teas are customized to meet your specific needs and can be particularly beneficial for patients with chronic conditions.
