Irritable Bowel Syndrome, or IBS, is a common problem affecting the bowel, or large intestine. IBS — also called functional bowel syndrome, irritable colon, spastic bowel and spastic colon — is a syndrome because it can cause several symptoms, including cramping, bloating, gas, diarrhea and constipation.
With IBS, the nerves and muscles in the bowel are extra-sensitive. For example, the muscles may contract much too much when you eat, causing cramping and diarrhea during or shortly after a meal. Or the nerves can be overly sensitive to the stretching of the bowel (because of gas, for example), resulting in cramping or abdominal pain.
Treatment
Place Infratonic on the location of pain (which is usually in the middle of the transverse colon). When the pain subsides move the transducer along the descending colon until the spasm is gone. Treat area for about 20 minutes daily or as needed for pain. Using the Infratonic on these areas decreases the number of acute episodes greatly.
" I've had irritable bowel syndrome since I was a child. For years the only thing that helped with the pain was drinking hot water and hoping it would help. However, once I got my first Infratonic machine, it has never failed to relieve the pain and spasm. When the pain occurs, I place the Infratonic on the location of pain (which is usually in the middle of the transverse colon). When the pain subsides I move the transducer along the descending colon until the spasm is gone. This takes about 20 minutes total. Using the Infratonic on these areas regularly has decreased the number of acute episodes greatly.-Roberta Stack
These pains used to occur often and now they are rare. I still have to be careful not to eat dry things like crackers before other foods, but the episodes have been greatly decreased and if they do occur I know the Infratonic will erase the pain. This is terrific news for those who suffer from irritable bowel syndrome, since the pain can be debilitating. "
