When the ligaments and muscles that hold the stomach in place weaken, the stomach drops downward, which can lead to digestive disturbance, bloating, constipation and loss of appetite.
Gastroptosis (dropped stomach) causes food and vitamins not to be absorbed properly — as a result, weakness, lowered immunity and health problems develop in the body.
1If left untreated
- Displacement of the internal organs
- Diaphragm problems
- Impaired blood circulation
2Comprehensive approach
Osteopathy restores the functional balance and natural position of the stomach; the EM-SLIM device, in turn, strengthens the abdominal muscles that support it, keeping the stomach in place. With this approach, the cause is addressed rather than merely masking the symptom, and the result is more stable.
We look not at where the pain is, but at where it comes from.
