Herbal remedies
Herbal remedies are a traditional natural healing method. We use herbs in a variety of forms such as supplements, tea infusions or tinctures at the clinic. At the clinic we use herbs to manage IBS, rebalance the gut microbiome and sooth the digestive tract.
Hydrotherapy
The general aim of hydrotherapy is to stimulate blood flow. This is important because blood carries nutrients and oxygen to the tissues and in turn carries cellular waste away. We use hydrotherapy as a tonic, to detoxify the body and to stimulate vitality. At the clinic we use hydrotherapy in a number of different ways. This includes a variety of methods such wraps, compresses, showers, sprays and baths.

Physical therapy
Chronic muscular imbalances can also lead to postural problems. An imbalance in your muscular/skeletal system can affect your digestive system. This in turn can worsen disgetsive problems such as IBS. At the clinic we use therapeutic massage, lymphatic pumps, muscle energy and neuromuscular techniques to help resolve muscular issues. We also work directly on the digestive system with various massage techniques.
Mental/emotional therapeutics
Stress management is a core component of our work at IBS Clinic. The is a strong association between stress and digestive problems such as IBS. A variety of exercises are taught to help manage stress such as progressive relaxation, breathing exercises, meditation, visualization, positive affirmations & emotional freedom technique. We also provide an understanding environment at the clinic to help support your journey back to health.
