Acupuncture for Digestion
at
Union Yoga & Physical Therapy
Hi there! My name is Dr. Danielle Rose and I'm your local acupuncturist, herbal medicine practitioner and women's health physical therapist. At Union Yoga & Physical Therapy, acupuncture and herbal medicine are at the heart of my work. I specialize in helping women rebalance their digestive systems, reduce discomfort, and restore confidence in their bodies.
​
My private, home-based clinic in Annandale, VA offers a calming environment that allows you to unwind, laugh a little, and feel supported. You don’t need to rush through your appointment or feel rushed in a crowded waiting room—you will receive individualized care designed for your unique body.
How Acupuncture Supports Your Gut
From a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) perspective, digestive symptoms are rarely random. They occur when the body’s qi (energy) becomes disrupted—often due to stress, overthinking, irregular meals, emotional strain, or chronic lifestyle demands.
​
Acupuncture helps to:
​
-
Improve gut motility
-
Calm the nervous system
-
Restore the downward movement of stomach qi
-
Reduce inflammation and discomfort
-
Support long-term digestive function
Whether you’re dealing with chronic GI issues or holiday-indulgence flares, you deserve solutions that look at your body as a whole—not just quick symptom suppression.
Digestive Health Conditions I Treat
Acupuncture for Abdominal Pain
Digestive pain can be sharp, dull, bloated, menstrual-related, or triggered by food sensitivities. Acupuncture works to relax the gut, improve circulation, and calm nervous system responses that worsen pain.
​
Acupuncture for Constipation & IBS-C
Chronic constipation isn’t just uncomfortable—it affects mood, sleep, and daily confidence. Acupuncture encourages proper downward movement, improves hydration balance, and awakens the body’s natural elimination rhythms.

Acupuncture for Diarrhea & IBS-D
Loose stools, urgency, and post-meal panic often reflect heat/cold, stagnation, or emotional stress in TCM. Acupuncture targets the gut-brain connection, easing motility and reducing inflammation.
​
Acupuncture for Gas & Bloating
Feeling “full,” swollen, or distended—especially after meals—is often a sign of food stagnation or weak digestive qi.
Acupuncture reduces pressure, improves gut motility, and helps you digest food more efficiently.
​
Acupuncture for Nausea & Vomiting
From motion sickness to reflux to chronic digestive upset, nausea can feel deeply disruptive. With targeted acupuncture points, we help the stomach qi move downward—the direction it’s meant to go—while calming the nervous system.
​
Why Women Seek Digestive Support Here
Many of my patients are high-performing women juggling career, family, long hours, and sleep scarcity.
In TCM, this lifestyle pattern taxes the digestive system, leads to stress-related gut symptoms, and worsens hormonal and sleep issues.
​
Acupuncture gives your body space to exhale.

This is not a ten-minute quick fix.
