Living with a Small Bowel Obstruction
()
About this ebook
Episodes of small bowel obstruction are painful and debilitating. Even worse, the only conventional treatment is surgery that can cause new adhesions and more strictures in a vicious cycle.
Integrative medical practitioner, author, and cancer survivor Brandon LaGreca shares a complete integrative protocol for managing episodes of small bowel obstruction, including dietary strategies, movement, manual therapy, and the hidden contribution of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth to the perpetuation of gut symptoms.
This short monograph will enable you to take control of your digestive health and provide additional resources to deepen your understanding of how to manage a small bowel obstruction.
