One source of constipation is the slowing of the paristaltic rhythm of the intestines. This is the exact opposite of irritable bowel syndrome where there is a speeding up and a randomization of the paristaltic rhythm. So is there a natural way to effect the paristaltic rhythm?

The answer is yes. There is an easy and natural way to effect the paristaltic rhythm and that is by using diaphragmatic breathing. When we breathe with the diaphragm the diaphragm gently massages the intestines and this gentle massage acts as a pace maker which tends to normalize peristalsis and improve the symptoms of constipation.
