You may be wondering how Acupuncture may have a ”side effect” of improving digestion, so let’s talk about that.
Acupuncture helps by balancing the gut-brain axis and the nervous system to reduce stress, which in turn improves digestive function. One of the side effects of an overactive sympathetic nervous system is decreased digestive function. Acupuncture also help reduce pain and inflammation which helps regulate stomach acid and promote peristalsis.
All of this will help to create a stronger digestive system and improve the functioning of the gut. A great added bonus to getting acupuncture!
