What is IBS
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a common digestive condition in Singapore. It affects gut function and causes recurring symptoms such as bloating, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, constipation, or mixed bowel patterns.
IBS symptoms often worsen with stress, diet triggers, and irregular routines.
At Regis Wellness TCM Clinic, we provide personalised IBS treatment in Singapore using evidence-informed Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Our TCMPB registered physicians assess your symptoms, triggers, and body constitution to create a targeted plan that improves digestion and reduces flare-ups.
IBS Symptoms and Causes
IBS presents differently in each individual. Common symptoms include:
- Abdominal pain or cramping
- Bloating and gas
- Diarrhoea (IBS-D)
- Constipation (IBS-C)
- Alternating bowel habits (IBS-M)
- Urgency after meals
- Incomplete bowel movements
Common IBS triggers in Singapore:
- Irregular meals and fast eating
- Processed, spicy, or oily foods
- Cold drinks and iced beverages
- Chronic stress and poor sleep
- Sedentary lifestyle
IBS does not cause structural damage but significantly affects quality of life. Many patients rely on medication for short-term relief. TCM IBS treatment focuses on correcting internal imbalances for long-term stability.
How TCM Treats IBS
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, IBS is linked to imbalances in the Liver, Spleen, and Stomach systems.
- A weak Spleen leads to poor digestion and loose stools
- Liver imbalance leads to stress-related IBS symptoms
- Stomach dysfunction causes bloating and discomfort
Our TCM IBS treatment in Singapore aims to:
- Regulate bowel movements
- Reduce abdominal pain and cramping
- Improve digestion and nutrient absorption
- Reduce bloating and gas
- Manage stress-related gut symptoms
At Regis Wellness, we aim to treat both the root cause and symptoms for sustainable results.
TCM Treatment for IBS-D (Diarrhoea)
IBS-D is characterised by frequent loose stools and urgency.
Symptoms include:
- Loose stools multiple times daily
- Urgency after meals
- Relief after bowel movement
How TCM helps:
- Acupuncture regulates gut motility
- Herbal medicine strengthens digestion
- Moxibustion warms the digestive system
- Diet advice reduces trigger foods
Consistent care leads to improved stool consistency and reduced urgency.
TCM Treatment for IBS-C (Constipation)
IBS-C involves infrequent or difficult bowel movements.
Symptoms include:
- Hard stools
- Straining
- Bloating and discomfort
How TCM helps:
- Acupuncture to stimulate bowel movement

TCM Treatment for Mixed IBS (IBS-M)
IBS-M involves alternating diarrhoea and constipation.
Symptoms include:
- Unpredictable bowel patterns
- Stress-triggered flare-ups
How TCM helps:
- Regulate gut rhythm
- Balance digestive function
- Reduce sensitivity to triggers
We aim to help you stabilise bowel habits and reduce your number of flare-ups.
IBS and Stress: The Gut-Brain Link
Stress is a major trigger for IBS. In TCM, stress disrupts Liver function, affecting digestion and causing bloating, pain, and urgency.
How TCM helps:
- Acupuncture to calm the nervous system
- Herbal medicine to support stress regulation
- Lifestyle advice to improve sleep and recovery
Patients often experience improvements in both digestion and stress levels after a few sessions of treatment.
