Digestive Health & Metabolic Support Through TCM

Jan 31, 2026 · By Amrita Healthcare Team

Digestive issues such as bloating, constipation, or slow metabolism are often linked to spleen and stomach deficiency, disrupted Qi and blood, or damp-heat accumulation. Modern lifestyle factors like prolonged sitting, irregular diet, and stress exacerbate these problems, leading to fatigue, lowered immunity, and chronic inflammation.

At Amrita Healthcare, digestive and metabolic regulation is achieved through integrated intervention:

· Acupuncture: Points such as Zusanli (ST36), Zhongwan (CV12), and Tianshu (ST25) improve gastrointestinal motility, circulation, and relieve bloating.

· Herbal Medicine: Tailored formulas target spleen deficiency or damp-heat to enhance digestion and metabolism.

· Manual Therapy: Abdominal tuina or gua sha promotes local circulation and enhances acupuncture efficacy.

· Lifestyle Guidance: Dietary adjustments, sleep optimization, and light exercise complement the therapy for long-term effect.

Many patients notice improvements in digestion, regular bowel movements, and increased energy within 3–4 weeks. In TCM, the spleen and stomach are central to overall wellness; regulating digestion strengthens systemic health.
