Digestive Issues

Heartburn, ulcers, constipation, diarrhea, indigestion, acid reflux, irritable bowel syndrome, nausea and infant colic are all symptoms that the digestive system is not functioning properly. If you experience any of the problems listed here, read on!

The role our digestive system plays includes a long list of vital functions. Not only is it responsible for breaking down foods and distributing the nutrients all over the body, our digestive system is also in charge of elimination and detoxification. As such, an unhealthy digestive system results in not only unpleasant symptoms, but can also cause decreased nutrient absorption and toxic build-up.

The inner workings of our digestive system involve a joint effort between nerves, muscles, acids, enzymes and such. On a good day this is a difficult process for our body to perfect, but imagine what happens when we throw in high stress levels, poor diet, disrupted sleep, physical injury and undetected food allergies.

Taking medicine to suppress the symptoms can certainly be an effective short-term solution… but what is happening to your body in the meantime? Our suggestion is to get to the root of the problem as soon as possible, and return the body to its optimal digestive performance.

Using the computerized body scan, our practitioners are able to determine the state of each digestive organ as well as nerve supply to those organs. Depending on the level of lymphatic function and toxicity, ionic footbaths [link] may be recommended to initiate detoxification. Diet may also be a factor, in which case the client can follow the report provided by the computerized assessment.

Most importantly, Bowen treatments will be administered. Specific Bowen protocols to address digestive issues may include the diaphragm reset, liver/gallbladder protocol, colon procedure, kidney protocol, pelvic adjustment, TMJ, vagus nerve and in many cases the coccyx procedure. This is not to say that other areas may also need addressing simultaneously — and this can certainly be fit into your personalized treatment plan.
