How to relieve bloating?
Question: Recently, I’ve been experiencing persistent bloating in my stomach, regardless of what I eat. Is there any way to alleviate this issue?
CheckCheckCin: Irregular eating is a part of the urban lifestyle, and it can easily lead to symptoms of indigestion, such as abdominal bloating, gastric acid reflux, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea. In traditional Chinese medicine theory, these symptoms fall under the category of food stagnation.
To address this, it is important to promote digestion and resolve stagnation. We can consume moderate amounts of foods known for their digestive properties, such as hawthorn, papaya, pineapple, millet sprouts, malt, and roselle. These can help alleviate discomfort associated with food stagnation. Additionally, massaging acupoints like Central Venter (Zhong Wan), Inner Pass (Nei Guan), and Union Valley (He Gu) can also aid in relieving stomach-related symptoms and improving digestion.
Central Venter (Zhong Wan) Point
Location: located in the abdomen, below the ribs in the midpoint between rib cage and belly button, about 6 finger widths above the belly button
Effects: nourishes stomach and strengthens the spleen, alleviates symptoms of abdominal pain, poor appetite and digestive system pain
Method: use the thumb to gently press each acupoint for about 1 minute
Note: should not be pressed within two hours after a meal.
Inner Pass (Nei Guan) Point
Location: Located three finger breadths below the wrist on the inner forearm in between the two tendons
Effects: alleviates nausea due to motion sickness as well as nausea and vomiting caused by pregnancy.
Method: use the thumb to gently press each acupoint for about 30 seconds
Union Valley (He Gu) Point
Location: between the thumb and index finger, right next to the second metacarpal bone
Effects: alleviates dizziness, headache, bloating and tinnitus
Method: use the thumb to gently press each acupoint for about 1 minute
Note: pregnant women should not press this acupoint as it has labour inducing qualities.
