What are digestive problems?
Digestive problems occur when something in your body’s process of breaking down and absorbing food isn’t working as it should. From the moment you eat to the moment your body eliminates waste, your stomach, kidneys, intestines, and other organs all play important roles. If any part of this process is disrupted, you may experience symptoms often described as indigestion, dyspepsia, irritable bowel syndrome, or general stomach discomfort.
Common digestive problems
- Diarrhoea
- Nausea
- Stomach pain
- Heartburn
- Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
- Bloating or a bloated feeling
- Food allergies or intolerances
- Stomach cramps
- Excessive gas
- Constipation
- Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
- Fatigue
- Brain fog
Causes of digestive issues like diarrhoea, nausea and stomach pain
Many causes of digestive problems such as diarrhoea, nausea and stomach discomfort can be traced back to the nervous system. When your body is under ongoing stress (emotional, physical or chemical), it moves into a sympathetic state (fight-or-flight). In this mode, your nervous system becomes overstimulated and struggles to switch back into the parasympathetic state (rest-and-digest). As a result, the natural rhythm of your digestive system becomes disrupted.
In the sympathetic state, your body prioritises survival over processing food, which can lead to bloating, cramping, constipation, diarrhoea, reflux, stomach pain, nausea and food allergies and intolerances. This imbalance can also affect your energy and mental clarity, causing symptoms like fatigue, brain fog and mood fluctuations.
There’s a strong emotional connection to the gut. Many people notice that when they’re worried, overwhelmed or going through something difficult, their stomach reacts right away. The gut is highly sensitive to how safe and relaxed you feel. Emotional stress, unresolved tension or receiving information that is “hard to digest” can all disrupt the natural rhythm of digestion. Your body isn’t just processing food, it’s also processing your experiences. When you feel calm and secure, your digestive system works better. When you feel threatened or unsettled, the gut can be one of the first systems of the body to respond. Understanding this mind-body link is a key step in creating real, lasting healing.
Symptoms of digestive problems
Digestive issues can show up in many different ways. Some symptoms are obvious like heartburn, stomach pain, food allergies and intolerances or diarrhoea, while others are less recognised, such as fatigue or brain fog. Many people try to manage these symptoms by changing their diet, taking supplements, exercising more or trying to reduce stress. While these things can help, the body often needs deeper support to truly relax, reset and start healing. This is where chiropractic care can play an important role.
Chiropractic treatment for digestive issues
Your nervous system plays a major role in how your digestion functions. When your system is overwhelmed, the body gets stuck in fight-or-flight, and digestion takes a back seat to prioritise other functions. By bringing your nervous system back into balance, your body can shift out of survival mode, relax again, and start repairing itself. This is essential for healing issues related to the stomach, intestines, kidneys, and overall gut function.
Chiropractic treatment helps restore this balance. With gentle, precise adjustments, we reduce interference in the spine so your posture improves and your brain and body can communicate more clearly. This makes it easier for your parasympathetic nervous system (rest-and-digest state) to switch back on. As your system settles, your digestion improves naturally, and you begin to feel more energised, clearer, and more comfortable in your body.
When your digestion begins to work the way it’s designed to, your body can actually absorb and draw nutrients from your food more effectively. This helps you nourish yourself fully. For many people, digestive issues can feel embarrassing or unpredictable in daily life. As your system calms and your gut starts functioning with more ease, your confidence naturally returns, so you can go about your day without worrying about discomfort or sudden symptoms.
When you’ll notice the effects of care
As your digestion begins to work more efficiently, your body starts absorbing nutrients more effectively. This doesn’t just reduce discomfort, it often leads to a more regular bowel movement, better energy levels and greater mental clarity. Some people notice changes quickly, while for others the progress is more gradual. They improve step by step and feel increasingly vibrant. How long your body needs to heal depends on factors like your lifestyle, stress levels and daily eating habits.

During your first appointment, we take the time to understand your health concerns and create a personalised care plan. This initial visit usually lasts around 30-45 minutes. Once we know what your body needs, the follow-up visits are shorter and more focused. You’ll first have a moment to relax on the table before the chiropractor begins the adjustments. These adjustments give your body exactly what it needs to support the self-healing process. So even though each session only lasts at most about 10 minutes, the healing process continues long after you leave the practice.
Yes, chiropractic care is very safe when performed by a qualified chiropractor. At Solar, every adjustment is delivered with precision, presence, and respect for your body’s natural rhythms. We don’t force or manipulate, we work with your body to help it find balance again. Research shows that chiropractic care is among the safest forms of healthcare available, and is far safer than common medications like ibuprofen. Our approach is gentle, specific, and focused on restoring proper function to your spine and nervous system. Most people experience chiropractic as deeply relaxing and even restorative, a way to reconnect with their body and support its innate capacity to heal and thrive.

What to expect
Your first visit
We’ll take the time to get to know you and explore how we can best support your health and healing. This comprehensive consultation includes a holistic health questionnaire, physical examination, posture scans, and a personal conversation about your health goals. If we determine that we can help you, you’ll receive a gentle chiropractic adjustment tailored to your body’s needs.
Intensive phase
In this stage, we focus on restoring balance in your spine and nervous system through precise, effective adjustments. The sessions are short yet powerful. Repetition is key as it helps teach your brain new, healthier neurological patterns. During this phase, we usually see you twice per week.
Stabilisation phase
Your body begins to adapt to its new balance. Muscles, discs, ligaments, and connective tissues get the chance to heal and strengthen. This will help prevent your body from slipping back into old, protective patterns. To support this process, adjustments are usually scheduled once per week.
Wellness care
We continue to support your health for as long as you feel it is best serving you. Just like eating well, moving your body, and giving yourself time to rest, regular chiropractic care is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. Together, we’ll decide the rhythm that works best for you and your goals.
Even more insurers reimburse chiropractic care through their supplementary insurance. Want to know what your insurer covers? Check your insurer’s coverage.
