Adult - Digestive Disorders

Digestive disorders affect the digestive tract or digestive system, causing pain, nausea, bloating, constipation, or diarrhea. Digestive disorders weaken your body’s ability to absorb nutrients from food, which in turn can lead to a lack of minerals and vitamins in your body and weaken your immune system. Conditions such as diarrhea or constipation can also lead to intoxication or poisoning of your body, which can trigger migraine headaches, dizziness and other disorders.

Digestive disorders include but are not limited to such conditions as:

Crohn’s disease
Irritable bowel syndrome
Ulcerative colitis
Colitis
Gastritis
Bloating
Nausea
Constipation
Diarrhea
Liver disorders

The Health in Motion approach

Since digestive conditions affect the entire body, we take a holistic, team-based approach that addresses all aspects of your health. Depending on your condition, we may recommend a treatment program that involves sessions with the following therapists:

Homeopath to address symptoms and stimulate the immune system to fight disease.
Herbalist to stimulate normal processes in the body. In addition, specific herbs can stimulate digestion, eliminate such symptoms as nausea, bloating and stomach aches.
Nutritionist to balance your food intake. This includes elimination of foods, which can trigger the symptoms, and at the same time to provide you with a diet that will enhance the immune system and lead to recovery.
Osteopathy treatment may be recommended in certain cases.

Program duration

Our digestive disorders program consists of six to 10 treatment appointments a month, with the number of months required varying according to the patient’s needs. During the duration of your program, we offer unlimited consultation by email and phone with any of your team therapists.
