Digestive Issues
Digestive issues encompass a range of gastrointestinal problems, including irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), constipation, diarrhoea, bloating, and acid reflux. These can be caused by dietary factors, stress, infections, or chronic conditions.
Standard Medical Approach:
- Diagnosis: Physical exams, blood tests, imaging, endoscopy, and colonoscopy.
- Treatment: Medications like antacids, laxatives, anti-diarrheal, and sometimes surgery.
Hito Holistic Approach
- Diagnosis: Detailed assessment of visceral entrapments, posture, diet, lifestyle, stress, and energetical or emotional health.
- Treatment: Depending on the symptoms and condition we can use a different approach. However, it is very important to make a visceral assessment to understand if there are specific organs restriction. Then with the visceral induction therapy we can release the single organs or related ligaments holding the organs in place until the abdomen would be fully relaxed and symptoms will start fading. Plus, from the palpation we can understand which meridians are involved (usually stomach, conception, kidney, spleen, liver and gallbladder. In ayurvedic medicine most of these conditions are related to the Solar Plexus (low self-esteem, judgemental environment, conflicts, etc.) and the Sacral Chakra (past traumas, sexuality, creativity, feeling, etc.) so it important to rebalance them singularly and together, and in association with the Spleen. Dietary advises are important as well as mindful practices such meditation and sound bath to relax the mind, journaling to digest life event or let go and breath work to release the diaphragm.
