Abstract
Constipation is described as having fewer than three bowel movements a week. In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), constipation is Blood deficiency with Heat retention.To demonstrate that constipation has energies alterations as the root and correcting it is the goal in the patient’s recovery. One case report of an eight-years-old girl complaining of not having bowel movement for more than a week for three years. She was being seen by a surgical pediatrician and a colostomy was in thoughts of being done. The mother sought for a TCM treatment, where the patient was diagnosed with Blood, yinand yang deficiencies. The patient received Chinese dietary counselling, auricular acupuncture/apex-ear bloodletting, systemic acupuncture and chakra energy measurement by radiesthesia. The patient result was 1 out of 8, except for the seventh chakra (normal). The patient had great improvement of the bowel movement (once a day), as well as an overall improvement of all symptoms, after TCM prescribed treatment. Constipation has an energy alteration as root and treating these energy imbalances and chakra’s energy deficiencies is essential for recover of all symptoms altogether.
