Digestive Complaints

Many people suffer with digestive issues for years without realizing that there are treatment options. Naturopathic Medicine takes into consideration your nutrition, lifestyle and health history before making treatment recommendations. The goal of treatment is to identify the cause of your digestive problems and then to heal any damage that has been done. Naturopathic Doctors often investigate food allergies as a potential cause.

Some of the more common digestive complaints include:

• Constipation
  
• Bloating
  
• Diarrhea (that sometimes alternates with constipation)
  
• Heartburn, indigestion
  
• Excessive gas, very foul gas
  
• Cramping
  
• Nausea
  
• Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
  
• Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) – Crohn’s and Colitis
