Struggling to pass stools? Sitting on the toilet for a long time with little result?
Constipation is extremely common among adults in KL & Bukit Jalil.
Typical symptoms include:
Hard stools / pellet-like stools
Straining during bowel movement
Bloating & abdominal tightness
Incomplete evacuation
Bowel movement only every 2–4 days
Feeling “blocked” even after passing stool
From a TCM perspective, constipation is caused by Qi deficiency, dry intestines, stress stagnation, food retention or damp-heat accumulation — not just “not enough water”.

We must restore Qi movement, strengthen digestion, and support the intestines.
Once the body is balanced, the bowels move naturally.”
