Why AcuBliss for IBS & Digestion Dr. Amorette LaFranchi

At AcuBliss, Dr. Amorette LaFranchi, DACM, blends Traditional Chinese Medicine with modern supportive therapies to address the root causes of digestive distress. With nearly 16 years of clinical experience and a deep understanding of how the gut impacts whole-body wellness, Dr. Amorette creates personalized treatment plans for those struggling with IBS, bloating, acid reflux, constipation, diarrhea, and other digestion-related concerns.

Our approach is gentle, non-invasive, and works alongside your existing medical care to improve comfort, regulate function, and support long-term digestive health.

How Acupuncture Helps with IBS and Digestion

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, digestive issues often stem from imbalances in the body’s energy (Qi) and the function of the Spleen, Stomach, and Liver systems. Acupuncture for digestion works by:

Calming inflammation in the digestive tract

Supporting smoother intestinal motility and nutrient absorption

Reducing stress, which is a common trigger for IBS flare-ups

Regulating gut-brain communication to ease symptoms

Whether you have long-standing IBS, occasional discomfort, or stress-related digestive changes, acupuncture provides a holistic, root-focused path to relief.

What to Expect at AcuBliss

Modern research suggests acupuncture can influence the gut-brain axis, improve vagus nerve function, and reduce systemic inflammation, complementing the TCM view that digestive harmony is key to overall vitality.

Many clients notice improvements in bloating, pain, and bowel regularity within a few sessions.

For chronic IBS, we typically recommend weekly treatments at first, with frequency tapering as symptoms stabilize.

Our goal is not just to relieve immediate discomfort but to create lasting changes in digestive health.

Amorette did an amazing job. She walked me through the entire process explaining the why not just the how. The environment was very clean and welcoming. All around a wonderful experience.

Amorette checks ALL of the boxes. Knowledgeable, easy to talk to, asks the right questions, puts you at ease and explains things so clearly! After battling with massive hot flashes for months that would come frequent and strong - Amorette had me regulated within minutes, like a hot flash off switch. No matter what ails you, I’m confident Amorette will help to not only regulate and heal, but you’ll leave each session with a better understanding of your own magical body 10/10 recommend ❤️

I have been seeing Dr. Amorette LaFranchi for many years and couldn’t be more grateful for her care. She has effectively treated my rheumatoid arthritis and provided incredible support throughout both of my pregnancies, from start to finish. Most recently, I have been visiting her for chronic pain management following an ankle sprain and fracture, and her treatments have made a real difference.

Her office is welcoming and incredibly calming, creating a perfect environment for healing. Dr. LaFranchi is a fantastic listener who genuinely cares and has a true passion for her work. I happily travel all the way from Broomfield to see her because of the quality of care she provides. The location is convenient, easy to access, and always has free parking available. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking compassionate and effective acupuncture care.
