ACIDITY? GASTRITIS? REFLUX?

You may have come here because stomach problems are familiar to you.

“The digestive system is our second brain” Does that sound like you? And the entire digestive system must work properly, otherwise, nearby structures and systems will be altered. Today we will let you know how these symptoms that occur so often can be combated at SOMSALUT through osteopathy.

The most frequent symptoms you may be noticing are:

  • Acidity and heartburn
  • Gastritis
  • Gastrointestinal reflux
  • Heaviness after meals
There is no specific age to present these symptoms, but poor nutrition or increased stress can worsen these symptoms.
How does stress affect you? Alters the autonomic nervous system. Think about it, if a lion is chasing you you’re not going to waste time and energy trying to get yourself to sleep and digest, are you? The body does the same, it optimizes energy by carrying out the rest of the day-to-day tasks: a bad day at work, missing the bus, being late for an appointment, etc. This means that in the end you don’t have time to do a good digestion and these symptoms start to appear.
It is likely that you do not attach importance to these symptoms and may even think that they are normal (and they are not, don’t forget!). You should know that even if you do not have clear digestive symptoms, this process could manifest itself at the musculoskeletal level due to the relationship that both the stomach and the esophagus have with other structures such as:
  • Cervical: you may be suffering from cervical pain (especially in the trapezius area).
  • Dorsal: interscapular pains may appear.
  • Left shoulder: can cause pain from the same.
  • It can also manifest through headaches.

From SOMSALUT, we offer you an individualized alternative to alleviate these symptoms. An interrogation and subsequent assessment is carried out. The treatment to be carried out is to normalize the vegetative nervous system and the stomach (what vascularizes it, what innervates it, nearby organs, and the stomach itself) in addition to articulating all the structures where more stiffness is generated, be it dorsal spine, cervical , etc.

If you have some of these symptoms and want us to make an assessment, do not hesitate to contact us.
