@truebalance_acupuncture: Heartburn isn’t always about the food 👀🔥 That burning in your chest might actually be starting in your *back*. Your mid-thoracic spine — especially around T7 — sits near the innervation zone connected to the vagus nerve, which plays a HUGE role in digestion. When that area is tight, locked up, or full of muscle knots, it can interfere with how your body regulates stomach acid and digestion. Blocked signal ➡️ stressed digestion ➡️ reflux + heartburn. Sometimes the fix isn’t another antacid… it’s releasing the tension in your mid-back. Your spine and your stomach are more connected than you think 💡 #HeartburnRelief #NervousSystemHealth #VagusNerve #ThoracicSpine #HolisticHealth
