How is GERD treated?

  • Homeopathy has a solution for treating GERD. In mild and moderately severe cases, Homeopathy can treat the root cause and can normalize the functioning of the digestive tract, correct any functional sphincter abnormalities, and prevent backflow of the stomach contents.
  • Homeopathy helps to alleviate heartburn, chest pain, difficulty in swallowing, cough, and other symptoms of GERD. Homeopathy treats the underlying psychological factors like stress, anxiety, and anger and helps calm the mind.
  • Homeopathy helps prevent recurrences and also helps reduce the frequency of acid reflux.
