Anyone ever tried TCM for chronic constipation?

A very interesting question. I have read the research on it and would be interested to hear how you go. I have used acupuncture before (to give up smoking 24 years ago) but it didn’t work and I needed strong medication and quit for good. I am also careful about ingesting supplements.

It would seem the best route is to find a very good TCM practitioner to start with. (The problem seems to be that TCM studies have been poor quality so have not been much help in assessing effectiveness).

Please do let us know how you go.
