Regulation of Digestive Function: Acupuncture is believed to influence the nervous system and digestive organs, potentially promoting better digestion and reducing symptoms such as bloating.

Stress Reduction: Stress and anxiety can contribute to digestive issues, including bloating. Acupuncture is thought to have a calming effect on the nervous system, which may help reduce stress and its impact on the digestive system.

I have effectively addressed numerous gastrointestinal concerns, notably bloating, through the application of acupuncture and Chinese herbal remedies. To accurately identify the underlying cause of your bloating, an in-person assessment is recommended. Please feel free to reach out if you require additional assistance or information.

Acupuncture can often successfully treat a bloated stomach. Generally, a bloated stomach is a sign of what, in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), is termed as “digestive disharmony.” A Licensed Acupuncturist (L.Ac.) will do an initial differential diagnosis based on TCM parameters to determine whatever organ system is interfering with the digestion and will treat to improve the “energy flow” to correct the underlying digestive issue(s).

Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine work effectively by clearing stagnation and strengthening the digestive process to resolve to bloat. To help create lasting change, eating an appropriate diet and learning ways to prevent and manage stress is often recommended alongside acupuncture treatment.
Yes, acupuncture can help with stomach issues. One of the main causes of bloating is gluten intolerance, so you might consider cutting it out of you diet completely for a month and see if it helps. Also, pay attention after you eat anything dairy. That is also a very common cause of stomach bloating.
