Find your imbalances and create a diet for your Digestion by taking the free digestion quiz: AYURVEDA PERSPECTIVE ON HIATAL HERNIAHiatal hernia is a common cause of acid reflux.DevelopmentThe lower esophageal sphincter (aka LES, also called the cardiac valve) is a one way valve that lets food into the stomach.Under the conditions or hernia, it may not function properly, allowing acid from the stomach to escape upwards into the esophagus, causing painful heartburn and acid reflux. The diaphragm is a big dome-shaped muscle above the stomach that separates the lungs and heart from the stomach , liver, and digestive viscera. A hernia is a protrusion of an organ through an opening. In this case, a hiatal hernia is a protrusion of the stomach through the diaphragm. Each time you inhale, the diaphragm contracts and pushes down on digestive organs. Each time you exhale, the diaphragm relaxes. Since you breathe roughly 26,000 times a day - the diaphragm pushes on the digestive organs very often. The esophagus passes through the diaphragm and into the stomach. So there is a lot of interaction between the esophagus, top of the stomach, and diaphragm. For various reasons the upper stomach may become adhered to the diaphragm, or protrude through. One of these reasons is shallow breath. Shallow or difficult breathing due to pain may also be a sign of hiatal hernia. Other causes include anything that creates undue pressure on abdominal organs, including pregnancy, obesity, gas & bloating, physical exertion and strain including persistent coughing. Finally, poor or lax muscle tone can cause malfunction of the valve. TypesThere are two types of hiatal hernia, sliding and rolling. A sliding hernia is the most common, when the upper part of the stomach protrudes through the diaphragm. A sliding hernia is often small, and produces no symptoms, or intermittent symptoms. It often slips in and out of its correct position.A rolling hernia is rare but more dangerous. It can trap the stomach above the diaphragm, cutting off the blood supply and causing necrosis or tissue death, a serious condition. Upon palpation with firm pressure, you may notice some discomfort in the upper left quadrant on the abdomen. DiagnosisA barium X-ray may be used to diagnose hiatal hernia.TreatmentSurgery is often used to correct this condition, but it is not statistically successful.Chiropractors can sometimes reset the diaphragm into the proper position. You can also try a home technique while lying on your back with your knees bent or close to your chest. On the exhale push your finger under your left rib cage and pull the stomach down. When you sit, the belly compresses which increases pressure in the abdomen. Instead, move the belly button forward to create more space in the lower abdomen. Lift the sternum to create even more space. Easy to digest foods so that food doesn't stagnate in the upper GI. This can reduce the chances of acid reflux. Avoid carbonated beverages and food that causes gas or bloating. Avoid muscle relaxants like smoking. Aromatic herbs like peppermint should be avoided as these will also relax the LES causing malfunction. Disclaimer: 'Hiatal Hernia' could be serious and should be checked by a medical doctor.

HOW AYURVEDA WORKS
ARE YOU WONDERING HOW AYURVEDA CAN HELP YOU?WHY IS AYURVEDA THE RIGHT SOLUTION?
Ayurveda strengthens the body while opposing disorders. It takes a holistic, systemic approach that looks at the whole body. Ayurveda shows how to interpret signs and symptoms of imbalance, and how to address them using diet, lifestyle adjustments, and herbs. It shows a person how to optimize their health on a continual basis. You can't take the doctor home with you, but you can take Ayurveda home with you. Ayurveda is the most advanced and easy to use home system for self healing.HOW DOES AYURVEDA WORK?
Ayurveda starts by identifying your body type, which identifies certain tendencies in your body to get sick (as well as identifying your strengths). It uses body type to determine the likely root causes of your disorders. Next, Ayurveda analyzes the nature of your disorder. It fits all your signs and symptoms into a pattern, expressed as a combination of biocharaceristics (gunas). For example, you may have a heat disorder, a cold disorder, or an oily disorder, etc. This simple categorical approach shows you how to correct systemic imbalances and strengthen your body as a whole.On Joyful Belly, we've created an extensive categorization of food so you can easily match food to your imbalanced biocharacteristics. By eating an optimal diet that balances your biocharacteristics, your whole body is strengthened and the conditions that created the disorder are removed. Once the root causes of the disease are removed, the disease lessens in strength or disappears altogether. Additional remedies - such as herbs and lifestyle practices - focused on the specific disorder, can greatly enhance your healing.

John's commitment to the detailed study of digestive disorders reflects his zeal to get down to the roots of the problem. His hope and belief in the capacity of each & every client to improve their quality of life is nothing short of a personal passion. John's creativity in the kitchen and delight in cooking for others comes from his family oriented upbringing.

John enjoys sharing Ayurveda within the context of his Catholic roots, and finds Ayurveda gives him an opportunity to participate in the healing mission of the Church.
