Digestive Issues

Your gut does far more than digest food. It influences your energy, your mood, your skin, your sleep and how clearly you think. So when digestion is off, it rarely stays a stomach problem: you may feel bloated and uncomfortable, but also flat, foggy and tired after meals.

Many people spend years cutting out one food after another, never finding out why their gut became so reactive in the first place.

In Chinese Medicine, digestion has always been regarded as the foundation of good health. When it is working well, everything else has what it needs to work well too.

A settled gut comes from strengthening digestion itself, and that takes more than an ever-shrinking list of safe foods.

We look at the whole picture, including how you eat, how you sleep and how stress shows up in your body, and build a treatment plan around you. This may include acupuncture, herbal medicine, and practical food guidance that fits your real life. I commonly see people for bloating, reflux, constipation, loose bowels and IBS.

If you are ready to enjoy food again, my care works comfortably alongside your GP and any treatment you are already receiving.
