• A range of digestive conditions can potentially
  respond well to traditional Chinese medicine,
  especially for people who have tried other
  approaches that have unfortunately been
  unsuccessful. This includes
• Acupuncture  The aim is to treat the root of a
  digestive condition and promote overall
  well-being and calm. Acupuncture deals with the
  flow of qi and is an integral part of traditional
  Chinese medicine. First used more than 2500 years
  ago, it is possible to use acupuncture to treat
  complex digestive issues. 
• Chinese herbal medicine The aim of using a
  selection of herbs is to restore the body to good
  digestive health and balance. Chinese medicine
  offers the prospect of healing in this area. 
• Tui na massage Typically used to treat chronic
  musculoskeletal problems, lower back pain, frozen
  shoulders and so on, it can also treat people
  suffering from digestive issues such as IBS
  (Irritable Bowel Syndrome). 
• Qi Gong A calming exercise that affects the
  parasympathetic nervous system which in turn
  helps the regulation of the digestive organs, and
  breath work practices facilitating the movement
  of the digestion by massaging the internal
  organs with the pump like action of the diaphragm
  and reaction of the pelvic floor.

Where Chinese medicine is concerned, the main
organs associated with digestive disorders
are Spleen This is because its white blood
cells fight infection in the blood. It also
controls levels of platelets and white and red
blood cell levels in our bodies. The Spleen needs
to be moist to work well.  Stomach The stomach
is where foods are broken down to help the body
digest them. The stomach needs to be on the drier
side to function well.  When the balance of both
Spleen (Yin) and the Stomach (Yang) is disturbed,
the digestive system can develop issues.

• Treatment
• A reputable Chinese medicine practitioner in our
  London clinic may use a mixture of acupuncture,
  including Moxibustion, Chinese medicine, and Tui
  na massage, to treat digestive disorders.
  However, each patient is personally assessed to
  receive the right healing technique for their
  chronic condition.
• If you are struggling with digestive issues,
  either those on the list above or other
  difficulties, Chinese medicine can help restore
  digestive balance and harmony. In addition,
  acupuncture treats the whole person, not just the
  symptoms. Also, it can help relieve stress and
  upset caused by persistent and chronic digestive
  conditions that have thus far not responded to
  treatment.
