Understanding Constipation and Digestive Imbalance
Constipation is a condition in which bowel movements become infrequent or difficult to pass. It is often accompanied by symptoms such as bloating, gas, abdominal pain, heaviness, and loss of appetite.
Some of the main causes of constipation include:
- Low fiber diet
- Dehydration
- Sedentary lifestyle
- Stress and anxiety
- Weak digestive fire (slow metabolism)
- Hormonal changes
- Side effects of medications
When the digestive system becomes sluggish, toxins begin to accumulate in the body, affecting immunity, skin health, energy levels, and mental clarity. That’s why treating constipation is important not just for comfort, but for overall health.
How Acupuncture Helps Improve Digestion & Relieve Constipation
Acupuncture is an ancient healing technique that works by stimulating specific meridian points of the body using ultra-fine, sterile needles. These points regulate the flow of energy (Qi) in the body and support the functioning of internal organs, including the stomach, intestines, liver, and spleen.
By stimulating the correct acupuncture points for constipation, we help:
- Improve intestinal movement (peristalsis)
- Strengthen digestion and nutrient absorption
- Reduce gas, bloating, and abdominal discomfort
- Calm the nervous system that affects gut function
- Increase blood flow to the digestive organs
- Restore regular bowel movements
- Detoxify the digestive tract naturally
This natural method provides long-lasting digestive improvement without harmful side effects.
