Maya Abdominal Therapy for IBS

December 15, 2014 By Riley 1 Comment

I do not remember exactly how I came across Maya Abdominal Therapy, but after reading about it, I figured I would give it a try.  You can read about it here.  My main reason for pursuing this form of therapy was to get an assessment of the overall health of my abdominal region and see if it would help with chronic constipation.  Currently, I am reliant upon Natural Calm Magnesium, a restrictive diet, and a prokinetic drug to have healthy bowel movements.

During my session, the therapist mentioned a couple of things that I made sure to remember:

1) My spleen and liver were congested

2) Duodenojejunal was functioning slowly

I could literally feel my organs releasing and hear gurgling noises at various points of my abdomen while she worked on it. It really sounded like she was getting things to function.  She recommended that I come back in one to three weeks for a follow up as it often takes several sessions to get to the many layers of the abdomen.

Have you had Maya Abdominal Therapy for IBS? I would love to hear about your experience!

NEW RECIPE: WILD BLUEBERRY BEET SMOOTHIE! Recently NEW RECIPE: WILD BLUEBERRY BEET SMOOTHIE! Recently I had a major craving for @JouleCraftedNutrition‘s Fair Shake Smoothie. The problem? I now live 2,000 miles away from this very special restaurant. So to try to solve this problem without getting on an airplane, I got to work in the kitchen (and got some help from Joule- they were so kind)! The result? A DELICIOUS homemade version that is loaded with antioxidants and is made with easy to find ingredients: beets, blueberries, spinach, avocado, lime, ginger, turmeric, apple cider vinegar, and water. It's tangy, gingery, subtly sweet, and super refreshing! Optionally, collagen can be added for a protein boost and moringa if your digestion needs an extra push along ;) Even without the moringa, the beets and ginger are perfect for kickstarting digestion! I like to enjoy this smoothie as a snack, for supplementing a meal when I need veggies without much effort, or as a light meal when I need to get out the door early but am not hungry. Recipe is on my website (there’s a clickable link in my bio) #glutenfree #dairyfree #soyfree #antioxidants #beets #blueberries
