How a visceral osteopath can help your digestion

You might ask how on earth can an osteopath – who treats bones and joints (right?) – help with your digestion? Well, it’s all about a really cool technique known as ‘visceral osteopathy.’ As you know, I advocate a holistic approach to improving wellness, and this is especially the case for digestive health. I don’t believe I have all the answers, and it’s important for me to consider all the possible reasons why you may be feeling under the weather. I consider three main areas when it comes to symptoms, which I call the ‘Triad of Wellness or Health’:...

How to overcome anaemia

In order to overcome anaemia, you have to know two things: First, what kind of anaemia do you have? Second, why do you have it in the first place? Once you know the answers to these questions, overcoming anaemia isn’t that difficult in most cases. I want to be very clear that anaemia is very common, much more common than your doctor will tell you. In fact, I’d say that fully 50% of my clients have some form of anaemia or mild nutrient deficiency. The consequences of not dealing with this can be profound because the nutrient deficiencies that...

Do you get belching and gas after eating?

You shouldn’t really have belching or gas after a meal and if you do, it’s a strong indicator of digestive problems. But don’t worry, you can take simple steps to improve things, as I describe below. Belching and gas typically indicate that you have low stomach acid (hypochlorhydria) or pancreatic insufficiency (low pancreatic enzyme levels), or that you have bacterial overgrowth in your gut (SIBO). The sooner you belch or feel bloated after eating, the more likely it is to be low stomach acid causing the problem, and the longer the symptoms take to kick in, the more likely...
