Beauty tips are normally meant to enhance either your well-being or looks, so coming across some beauty tips that have helped me manage my IBS turned out to be a pleasant surprise.

The good thing about these tips is that they do not require much effort on your part, and can be transported out in the privacy of your own home. The best part about the tips is that they are not gender-biased, so both sexes can enjoy the benefits and relief that come from them.

Conduct these tips on a regular basis and you will find, as I have, some relief from IBS.

Tip # 1

Take a warm bath, at least once a day. In some Eastern cultures, it is normal practice to bathe in cold water, for it is believed that cold water invigorates and increases the blood circulation in one's body. I have found that warm water has its own benefits as well.

Stand under a warm shower for at least 3 minutes when you first get into the shower. Make sure that you direct most of the hot water to your stomach area. You may find yourself burping and feeling as if you need to get the gas that is building up in your body out.

If need be, gently pat your tummy area to help get the gas out. You may need to turn the shower off to do that. Once you feel that you have managed to get rid of the bloated feeling, you can continue with the rest of your shower.

For maximum impact, I normally repeat the process the last three minutes of the shower again.

When you take your shower is also important. I normally take a shower before I have my meal. Some Eastern cultures believe that if you take a shower immediately after a meal, gas tends to build up in your stomach. People who are IBS pride should take showers at least one hour after a meal, and ideally showers should be taken before and not after a meal.

This tip has also helped me when I find myself bloated and in need of immediate relief.

Tip # 2

Give your tummy a gentle massage before you go to bed. Lie down and gently massage your tummy in a circular clock-wise direction using aromatherapy oils. Massage for about 2-3 minutes, and then remaining lying down, taking some deep and slow breaths. Then sit up and gently pat your tummy. You will find yourself burping. Allow the release of gas, and continue to gently pat your stomach.

This tip has also helped me when I feel bloated and need immediate relief. It is also believed that massaging your tummy in a clock-wise direction aids in bowel movement. Make sure that you do not massage your tummy if you have just had a meal.

Carry out the two tips mentioned here on a daily basis, and you will find that the gas that builds up in your tummy will be released, offering you some relief from IBS.
