Natural Remedies For ConstipationBy Lorn
Allison
Doctoral Candidate, L.M.T. Natural remedies for Constipation are varied and very useful. The remedies that work best for constipation are listed below. I deal with this problem in the clinic and private consultation almost daily. What I can tell you is that even for the worst cases of constipation the following remedies work amazingly well.
The most useful remedies that we use with the most success are digestive enzymes, probiotics and manual therapy. Herbs can be useful ful but they are only masking the problems cause. Enzymes and Probiotics go straight to the cause of the problem. Minerals such as magnesium also will only treat the symptoms because it forces more water to the colon which helps the bowel motility. Wouldn't more water consumption due the same thing? My experience says absolutely (please see the water consumption page above). Manual thaerapy or massage techniques can be very useful to remove myofascial triggerpoints that may be present in the abdomen. These tissue restrictions can be due to previous traumas to the abdomen or some inherent tension in the connective tissue of the abdomen that is causing constipation by restrictive tension on the natural intestinal movement. Sometimes just a change in diet is enough to relieve constipation. Please read more here... natural remedies for constipation through diet.
