Osteopathy does not treat digestive disorders in isolation, but considers contributing factors such as stress, diet, lack of physical activity and and overall health.

Constipation

A common condition that affects many people, characterized by:

– Difficulty passing stool;
– Infrequent bowel movements;
– A sensation of incomplete evacuation;

If left untreated, constipation can significantly impact quality of life and lead to complications.

Gastroesophageal reflux & Heartburn

Reflux occurs when stomach contents flow back into the esophagus, often causing:

 - A burning sensation in the chest (heartburn)
 - Regurgitation (the sensation of food returning to the mouth without vomiting)

How Osteopathy Supports Digestive Health

By restoring functional balance and mobility in the gastrointestinal system, osteopathy helps:

 - Relieve abdominal discomfort
 - Promote bowel movement
 - Improve overall digestive function
