Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)

Stopping smoking – providing the willpower is already there
Dr Halvorsen is an experienced GP and is very happy to discuss with you whether acupuncture, or indeed some other therapy – either orthodox or complementary, is the most appropriate for your particular problem.
