Often characterised by a swollen belly, bloating can impact your self-esteem and body image, causing many people to feel embarrassed by the visible physical changes to their stomach.

At Omniya Clinic, we want to help all our patients feel confident and not have to battle with low self-esteem. Bloating is most often caused by dietary-related issues, which can be effectively treated and improved with our range of treatments.

When the digestive system is blocked or working in a sluggish manner, it will not function properly and can result in uncomfortable and often painful symptoms like bloating, painful joints, acid reflux and low energy.

Certain foods can additionally cause bloating, particularly beans and cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cabbage. Additionally, carbonated drinks and certain medications can occasionally pose side-effects of bloating too.

The symptoms of bloating vary from person to person, but most commonly, a person will feel a full or tight feeling in the abdomen which can cause mild to serve pain in this area. Other symptoms include excessive gas or flatulence, nausea, fatigue and changes to bowel movement.
