Gut health symptoms
So many of us think that it is just a normal part of life to suffer things like bloating, gas, constipation and diarrhea, food intolerances and allergies but all of these things can be indicators of poor gut health, which with treatment can be improved to the point of reduction and ultimately resolution of these often inconvenient, uncomfortable and embarrassing symptoms.
At Happy Laughter we have a special interest in gut health and have successfully helped many people improve their quality of life by improving their gut health.
Many people are now gaining a greater understanding of the role that good gut health plays in the quality of our overall general health.
We now have a greater understanding of the link between the gut and the brain and the role that good gut health can play in keeping us mentally well. Many people do not realise that good gut health is not only important for keeping us mentally well, helping us to digest and absorb nutrients and prevent uncomfortable symptoms like gas, bloating, constipation and diarrhea; it is also the foundation of our immune systems.
Why good gut health matters
As the foundation of the immune system, our gut plays a vital role in assisting us to fight off illness and chronic disease.
This is why we talk about gut health with all of our patients and provide education and information regarding things you can easily implement in your day to day. This can allow you to make the necessary changes to improve the functioning of your gut and therefore your whole body. It stands to reason that people with great gut health heal more quickly when they have an injury or illness and so working on your gut health has carry over benefits long after the resolution of symptoms.
Our approach to gut health
At Happy Laughter we view gut health through the lens of Chinese Medicine. Our approach to treatment is first to undertake a comprehensive assessment of your health. We will then make recommendations regarding what interventions will best help you to achieve your health goals, resolve any symptoms which may be present, and assist you to reach a state of optimum gut health over time.
Depending on your own individual presentation and the results of your comprehensive health assessment, treatment may include any combination of the following: Acupuncture, Chinese Herbal Medicine, Diet Therapy and suggestions for supplements in order to heal your gut, reduce, and ultimately resolve the presentation of unwanted gut health symptoms.
