Bloating: How to Relieve with Acupressure
Bloating is one of the most common symptoms of stress. For some people, stress
translates into breakouts, dry skin, itchy scalp or even migraines. However, for many,
stress seems to affect their gut. You see when you are anxious , overwhelmed or feel
threatened your body switches into “survival mode”. You may have heard it as
“fight-or-flight response.
During this phase, your body produces a series of chemicals to help you “stay safe” and
deal with the threat. During this mode, your body also turns off certain parts that are
not necessary at the moment. Sadly, the digestive system is not a priority function in
times of need. Consequently, food will not be digested properly resulting in a bloated
belly and sometimes a full-on stomachache.
The challenging part is, you are exposed to daily threats. Thus, it is important to take a
deep breath and calm yourself. One of the best ways to de-stress and beat bloating is
through acupuncture. It is a safe and proven effective holistic treatment for healing the
body.
