    Irritable Bowel Syndrome – The Essential Guide

    Statistics found on netdoctor.co.uk state that as many as one in five adults in the UK may have irritable bowel syndrome at any one time. IBS is often overlooked and, if not treated correctly, can cause discomfort and distress.

    Many IBS sufferers visit their GP and are simply told to eat a diet high in fibre, which unfortunately, in many cases does not relieve the symptoms. Irritable Bowel Syndrome – The Essential Guide offers many therapies and treatments, alternative and conventional, to help alleviate the problems associated with IBS.

    In a friendly and reassuring manner, the book guides IBS sufferers through spotting their IBS to getting treatment. The book includes information on what IBS is, who gets it and why. It describes how the digestive system works and how the reader can personally feel more comfortable with their diet and lifestyle. Some people suffer with strong IBS, while others only experience it mildly, so the guide looks at how different strengths can be treated in different ways.

    Sarah Dawson, author and journalist of over 10 years, feels her self-help guide will answer many IBS sufferers’ questions and give them all the information they need to feel comfortable and happy. She believes her book can benefit people of all ages, and the upbeat language and chatty tone reflect this. Sarah says, ‘The best cure for IBS is to understand it yourself, know what triggers it for you, and learn how to avoid the frequency and intensity of the symptoms.’

    IBS is often a misunderstood condition, with sufferers regularly being misdiagnosed. Irritable Bowel Syndrome – The Essential Guide arms readers with the essential information they need to effectively manage their own condition.

    Treatment of the Month

    RELIEVE SKIN DISORDERS

    A strong connection exists between the epidermis (your skin) and the nervous system.

    Anxiety and stress send your nervous system into 'overdrive', which can affect your skin.

    Scratching dry or itchy skin can turn into an unconscious habit which is hard to break.

    We can help you control the emotions that can trigger conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, and to break habits that may be adding to your discomfort.
