We specialise in natural treatments for IBS & other chronic gut issues like reflux, chronic anaemia and IBD.
Have you been diagnosed with IBS? Or have chronic gut health issues that haven’t been resolved with mainstream medicine? You might be missing your ‘root cause’.
With mainstream medicine we are often treating the symptoms not the root cause.
Signs your gut is out of balance -
Bloating
Indigestion, reflux
Tummy pain
Change in stool frequency
Fatigue after eating
Multiple nutrient deficiencies
Getting sick all the time
Change in mood and motivation
Non refreshed sleep
Issues with weight
Even hormonal issues like thyroid changes, endo & pcos!
Natural treatment for IBS -
Naturopathy considers the whole body, diet, environment and lifestyle when addressing underlying drivers of gut issues.
The naturopathic aim is to find the root cause of your gut symptoms.
We do this by:
having in depth consultations to go through symptoms of the whole body, the diet, previous health history, family history and the environment
using functional hormone testing to investigate your microbiome - maybe you have a parasite, fungal overgrowth, bacterial overgrowth, intolerance to gluten, leaky gut.. we wouldn't know without testing! If you want to learn more about this test, check out this page.
ruling out other causes of gut issues
I often test for: thyroid imbalances, cortisol imbalances, food intolerances, nutrient deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, heavy metal issues.. everyone is unique!
Remedies for IBS
The core of naturopathic treatment is teaching you how to eat in a balanced and individualised way to suit your body and lifestyle needs.
Natural herbal and nutritional interventions vary for everyone, but can include:
To manage symptoms, there might be short term diet changes whilst we recorrect underling imbalances.
Lifestyle changes to support the parasympathetic nervous system which is the ‘rest and digest’ nervous system
Digestive enzyme supplementation - bitter herbs, pancreatic and HCL enzymes are common
Probiotics & prebiotics
Vitamin & mineral repletion therapy if required
Vagus nerve support using herbs and/or nutrients if required
Hormonal support using herbs & nutrients if required
Consult with a naturopath
So if you struggling to manage your gut symptoms with conventional medicine, or you’re just wanting a more natural way to support your body, I would love to guide you!
Natural medicine looks for long term solutions for optimal wellness instead of bandaid treatments.
