    I tried acupuncture. It helps me relax but did very little for his complicated med. Condition.

      Hi. I wonder what your diet advice to you is. I have IBS but now completely constipated. I have tried most diets. Now been given FODMAP.

    Hi. I have tried a lot of different treatments including Acupuncture which definitely helped me to relax and gave me more energy but not specifically for IBS but as they tell me it is all caused by stress I would say it definitely helps for that.
