IBS’ Is Code for ‘We Have No Idea’—But Acupuncture Does

Your stomach bloats after everything. Your bathroom routine is a roulette wheel—constipation, diarrhea, maybe both in the same day. Your doctor ran bloodwork, poked your belly, and said, “Looks like IBS.”

What they meant was: We don’t know what’s wrong. We just know it’s annoying.

Great. Now you have a label. But your digestion is still garbage.

Let’s Translate “IBS” into Reality:

IBS isn’t a diagnosis. It’s a dumpster. Everything unexplained goes in there. Your gut is screaming, and the system’s only answer is “cut out gluten and dairy” or “try antidepressants.”

Meanwhile, you’re living in fear of food, bathrooms, and your own body.

Root Causes Behind “IBS” I Actually Treat:

• Nervous system dysregulation – Stress wrecks digestion. If your vagus nerve is offline, so is your gut.

• Low-grade inflammation – Hidden immune reactions inflame your gut lining, slow motility, and trigger bloating.

• SIBO/SIFO – Too many bacteria or yeast in the wrong place (small intestine) cause chaos after every meal.

• Liver/gallbladder stagnation – Not processing fats or hormones properly? Welcome to nausea, bloating, and weird poop.

• Leaky gut – Damaged gut lining = systemic inflammation = food intolerances = daily misery.

What Acupuncture Does (That Probiotics Can’t):

You’ve tried supplements, enzymes, gluten-free crackers. They helped for a week. Acupuncture doesn’t guess—it regulates.

• Reboots your nervous system to get digestion back online

• Increases vagal tone so you can actually rest and digest

• Improves gut motility so food doesn’t ferment like a science experiment

• Reduces inflammation in the GI tract

• Targets root imbalances using advanced diagnostics (channel palpation, pulse, tongue)

This is real medicine. Not fairy tales. Not food fear.

If You Feel Like a Science Project—You’re Not Alone.

I see this every day. Bloated, exhausted, scared to eat, and desperate for someone to actually understand what the hell is going on.

You don’t need another elimination diet. You need a system reboot.
