Constipation > See the Complete List

Constipation is described for a person who passes less than three bowel movements per week or has difficulty passing bowel movements. The common causes are dehydration, poor diet, lack of dietary fiber, physical inactivity, medical side effects, and inflammation. Common symptoms are abdominal pain, bloating, and cramping. Advanced intestinal testing and microbiome status is a helpful tool for our patients. The root cause must be determined, and natural remediation can often be applied without the need for medication. Complementary therapies such as acupuncture and TCM, are often helpful as well.
