Tummy Rescue-Naturopath

Have you ever felt like you're doing everything right for your gut... but still not getting the results you hoped for?
😮‍💨
You're taking the supplements.💊

You've cleaned up your diet.🥬

You've tried cutting out foods.🍔

You've spent hours researching what to eat and what not to eat.👩‍💻

Yet the bloating, pain, bowel changes, and food reactions keep showing up.🥺

For many people, the missing piece isn't another supplement or another restrictive diet.

It's their nervous system.🧘‍♀️

The Stressed Gut Type lives in a constant state of alertness.⏰️

Their mind rarely switches off.🧠

They carry the mental load for everyone.🪨

They worry about things before they happen.❓️❓️

They replay conversations after they've happened.🥴

They struggle to relax, even when they're exhausted.

And because the brain and gut are constantly communicating, this state of stress directly affects digestion, gut motility, stomach acid production, inflammation, and healing.

This isn't about "just relaxing."

It's about recognising that a body stuck in survival mode has different healing needs -as in healing the gut & digestion is NOT a priority

If you read this and felt seen, you might have some traits of the Stressed Gut Type.

Head to the link in my bio to learn more about all 5 Gut Types and the unique support each one needs.
(Stressed gut type blog coming this tomorrow so read the first 3 Gut Type articles in the series, to get ready!!)

Do you relate to any of these? 👇

✔️ Constipation or incomplete bowel movements
✔️ Going days without going properly
✔️ Bloating that worsens throughout the day
✔️ A heavy, “stuck” feeling in your stomach
✔️ Temporary relief after going to the toilet

If yes… this may not be random.

It may be a pattern.

I call this the Stuck Gut Type — where digestion becomes sluggish, backed up, and inefficient.
And for many people, this is the missing link behind:
⚡ Chronic bloating
⚡ IBS symptoms
⚡ Food sensitivities
⚡ Feeling uncomfortable after eating
⚡ The constant cycle of “trying everything”

The frustrating part?

Most people are only told:
“Eat more fibre.” and “Drink more water.”

But if movement and gut motility are part of the problem… that’s often not enough.

In my newest blog, I’m breaking down:
✨ What the Stuck Gut Type actually is
✨ Why symptoms build throughout the day
✨ What may be contributing underneath
✨ And why understanding your gut type changes everything

Constipation isn’t always a fibre problem.
🍎
And bloating isn’t always about the food.
🥙
Sometimes the real issue is that your gut has become… stuck.

I call this the Stuck Gut Type — a common pattern I see in clinic in people struggling with IBS, constipation, heaviness, and bloating, where they can feel everything and where things might be stuck.

And here’s what most people don’t realise:

👉 Your digestive system isn’t just about breaking food down. It also has to MOVE things through properly.

When movement slows down:
▫️ Food sits longer
▫️ Fermentation increases
▫️ Pressure builds
▫️ Bloating worsens
▫️ Constipation becomes chronic

Which is why so many people feel: “I eat well… but my gut still isn’t working properly.”

This week’s blog explains:
✨ Why the Stuck Gut happens
✨ Common signs & underlying causes most people miss or have no idea are connected
✨ Why fibre alone often doesn’t solve it
✨ And how this pattern can affect your whole digestive system

Because once you understand your gut pattern… things finally start making sense.

One of the hardest parts of living with IBS isn’t always just the symptoms…
😮‍💨
It’s feeling unheard while trying to get help.
😔
Over the years, I’ve had countless patients tell me they felt dismissed, rushed, embarrassed, or like they had to “prove” something was wrong before anyone would investigate further.

And honestly?
I’ve experienced this myself with health issues in my own family too.

I want to be clear:
I absolutely believe in collaborative healthcare and work closely with doctors, specialists, and allied health practitioners. GOOD healthcare teams change lives 💙

But many people with IBS still fall through the cracks because IBS is often treated as “just IBS” instead of asking WHY the gut is struggling in the first place.

IBS is a syndrome.
A pattern of symptoms.

And there can be MANY underlying drivers contributing to bloating, pain, reflux, constipation, diarrhoea, food reactions, or ongoing flare-ups.

That’s exactly why I created my workshop:
✨ to help people understand the 5 gut layers
✨ to stop the endless guessing
✨ and to finally understand what may ACTUALLY be happening in their gut.

If you’ve ever felt dismissed on your gut health journey, I’d genuinely love to hear your experience below 👇
