Digestive Health

Digestive health is the key to whole body health. Every other organ in the body is reliant on receiving nutrients from a properly functioning G.I. tract.  Our digestive tract is not only responsible for providing nutrients, but for tissue growth and repair, immunity, reproductive health, as well as your overall mood and wellbeing.  Pretty important stuff.  So while a little indigestion may seem annoying (or just another part of life), it may actually be symptom of something deeper.

Your digestive health begins with the food you put in your mouth.  That is why at Source Healing we incorporate nutritional counseling into your treatments.   Nutritional therapy, along with acupuncture and herbal therapy, is a key ingredient in guiding your body back to balance and optimal health.  Our practitioners will provide dietary recommendations based on your unique constitution.  Below is a short list of the many digestive disharmonies we commonly treat at Source Healing:

  • IBS
  • Crohn’s Disease
  • Ulcerative Colitis
  • Ulcers
  • Indigestion / Acid Reflux
  • Constipation / Diarrhea
  • Belching / Gas
