Get an Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a form of Chinese medicine that has been used for thousands of years. While it originates in traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture has become an accepted treatment for many common health conditions. For example, research shows that acupuncture can help relieve the symptoms of hiatal hernia and other symptoms like acid reflux and heartburn.
Acupuncture works by releasing endorphins (the body’s natural painkillers), which help an individual feel less pain and more relaxed. It also stimulates blood flow to their stomach muscles, which makes them more robust and less likely to bulge out through the esophageal hiatus (opening). Finally, acupuncture treatments may activate the body’s natural healing abilities so that it can repair tissue damage caused by hiatal hernia.
