Stomach pain can be exhausting and unbearable. The constant feeling of bloating, muscle cramps, and the worry of digestive issues can drain your energy. It can leave you tired, cranky, and vulnerable. Immediate treatment can help alleviate pain and restore energy.
Why Does Your Stomach Hurt?
Stomach pain can occur for many reasons, including:
- Overeating or indigestion, often leading to gas-induced stomach pain
- Stomach flu caused by an intestinal infection
- Chronic conditions such as Crohn’s disease, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), or colitis
Regardless of the cause, recurring stomach pain can significantly reduce quality of life.
How Chiropractic Care Helps Relieve Stomach Pain
The stomach and spine are closely connected. Nerves in the thoracic (middle back) and lumbar (lower back) regions of the spine regulate how food moves through the digestive tract and how efficiently it is digested.
A misalignment in these spinal nerves can disrupt digestion and lead to stomach pain. Chiropractic care restores alignment and relaxes the nerves, allowing them to function properly.
Techniques commonly used to address stomach pain include:
- Spinal adjustments and massage – gentle realignment to relieve nerve pressure and restore balance
- Acupuncture and acupressure – targeting meridian points to reduce pain and digestive discomfort
- Breathing exercises – calming the muscles and supporting digestion
