The more I prescribe this technique and observe the results, the more convinced I am that everyone should be doing it, as the causes of upward-moving vata are so ubiquitous in our culture today.
In Ayurveda, there is a condition called upward-moving vata or udvarta. There are many reasons for this condition, including stress and various forms of indigestion. What is interesting about this condition is that when vata goes up from the pelvis instead of down, it brings with it toxins from the liver and large intestines to the head and neck that were ear-marked for the toilet.
What's worse is that the upward-moving vata can cause the stomach to adhere itself to the underside of the diaphragm, rendering the stomach unable to digest hard-to-digest foods like wheat, dairy and fatty foods.

I suddenly got a stomach ache when I got back home today so I took tums, drank soda, took pesto bismol, but still felt the uncomfortable pain in my belly. So I turned to RUclips videos for exercises for indigestion and wow I really do feel a lot better after this! Thank you for the video.
Wow where have you been all my life? I just made this last night after dealing with nasty acid reflux all day, I also made some back stretching exercises. I slept like a baby for the first time in years, blessings now I am a loyal follower of your videos!!
Wow! I love Dr. Douillard's work. Can't believe I'd missed this. I just downloaded his free liver/gall bladder cleanse e-book. Wonderful!
Thank you so much for explaining this. My chiropractor kept telling me I have hiatal hernia, and here's why, and here's a road map to getting better. Wow. Many thanks.
So interesting. Saw a chiropractor years ago and he said my stomach was pushed up (my words to describe what he said). He pushed down from under my rib cage and sort of massaged in a downward direction. I felt completely different when I left that appointment. I think he did it at two appts. I couldn’t afford to keep seeing him, but I felt he was helping with my health issues.
wow...where have you been all my life? so glad i stumbled upon you. your videos are so informative... thank you!
ganjay man bat to ha baji
took the words out of my mouth. man that feels good .
for those confused which side the stomach is - notice the polo logo on the shirt. it is a mirror image and is usually embroidered on the left side.
so this video is flipped vertically. the Dr is showing the location correctly.
You are my hero. Thank you for being awesome. I've been watching your videos and cried because someone was actually telling me something useful. I finally know what's going on🖖🏾. God bless you.
Hi John I’m from Portugal sorry for bad english, I've been struggling with digestive problems for the past 7/8 years. I have heartburn and reflux and abdominal bloating, so I took anti-acids for 5 years (it took away the hearturn) until the day my digestion stopped 2 years ago and I felt very sick for 2/3 days, I could not eat anything I had no appetite and I felt my stomach full even when I didn’t ate for many hours and I got even fever. After this day I've been investigating natural cures to bad digestion and now I know I probably have very low stomach acid and I've been taking HCL+betaine every big meal and it really helps, I feel much better taking it, I also changed my diet I'm not eating gluten or lactose and I cut out most of refined sugars, I replaced my carbs from rice and pasta to sweet potatoes and I'm trying to eat veggies to get more fiber (about the veggies I still eat very few but I'm trying). But even after more than 1 year taking HCL I still have intestinal bloating and I cant stop taking HCL+betaine, I tried to get off it for the past week and I started to have constipation and a few days later I got very sick again (exactly like I was 2 years ago when I took anti-acids), my digestion stopped again and I can’t eat anything and I have fever. So why my digestion is not healing even after all this changes in my diet? Is it possible my diet hasn't still enough fiber? Should I do anything else? You would probably save my life answering me, thanks in advance!
Sergio Domingues Remove any dairy. Drink baking soda and lemon water. Also hydrated as much as possible. Eat more apples, berries and celery for fiber.
namaste, take empty stomach aloe Vera, amla juice, mint lime and green tea bag, vinegar and cinnamon, wheat grass, barely grass, alpha alpha powder, 2-3 liter water all these empty stomach morning and evening.
Sergio- I don't know how you are doing now, good I hope. My digestion completely stopped after months of feeling terrible and struggling. I ended up seeing the doctor and he said I was having a gallstone attack. I researched it and did several liver flushes and completely resolved my issues! Now, more tham 15 years later, when I am longer than 6 months without doing a flush my same problems show up until I can't digest anymore, so I do another flush. Pleas look into doing liver flushes and let me know how you're doing.
I have had very intense digestive issues and then had my first gallstone incident several months ago. I came across Dr. Douillard's website, lifespa.com when I was looking for alternatives to just going to a doctor and having my gallbladder removed. He has extensive information on how your entire digestive system works (and doesn't work) that addressed every issue I had. You can heal and reset your digestive system. I strongly advise you to check out his website, which you can access from the links he provides above.
Thank you Dr. Douillard .i just did that "not very well I think" but it has helped already I will be setting time aside to do it every day now.
+bluewren R Practice definitely helps with stomach pulling and getting used to that motion on this part of the body. The area should soften over time as well, making it easier the more regularly you practice.
Be well,
Dr. John
+John Douillard thank you for your response Dr.
Enjoy every video of this wonderful man. So unique and unlike any. Thanks very much Sir for all your videos.
It's simple and effective, thank you! 👍
Glad it was helpful! -LifeSpa Staff
Doctor is there any risk of damaging our stomach by pushing it down with our fingers ?
Dr. Douillard, thank you for your videos. Its wonderful to have a practical way to improve my own health through exercise.
Always great content. I have what feels like bubbles foaming on the surface of the stomach liquid. So many diagnostics that went nowhere. Last one in date is that it's coming from a thyroid issue. It seems so far off that it could be genius. Nevertheless, it's not improving. I am eating clean but light since I get quickly bloated. I seem to have malabsorption as well, so it's difficult to keep on going like this. No pain, but a constant uncomfortable feeling. I wish I could find some solution.
Love these videos, thank you soooo much. Gonna do a set this evening. ⭐️
If you have hiatal hernia, shouldn't you breathe out first then pull the stomach down? The diaphram tightens when you breathe in which would make it harder for the hernia to come down.
My HH has gotten larger. But O have not given up. A lot of techniques are just not working for me.
I’m going to try this. And keep trying until I feel some kind of results.
Thank you
THANK YOU MAN you saved my life!!
Alex Arsu
Thank you for watching Alex! I am glad you found this technique helpful.
Be well
Great information. I needed that asap.
Cameron Dill Hi Cameron,
I am glad this info was helpful for you!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you!! I’m so glad I came across you
Thank you for that!
Do I work all the way up to the sternum in the center, or stick to the lower down areas along the ribs away from the center? Many thanks
you are a synchronetic blessing
Good morning Dr. John. I believed I have poor digestion and stagnant lymph. Have seen many doctors and is by chance I saw your youtube sharing. I can't help being amazed by all knowledge gain. Have ordered and started taking manjistha and lymph cleanse. Since I have problem swallowing, I actually pour the manjistha powder out into water and drink them. May I know, whether I can add the drop of lymph cleanse into it and drink it along with my manjistha? Thank you.
wow this is just what I needed.
I find this very difficult to do myself and I can't find any practitioner in South Afruca to help me to this.
Isn't it more efficient to do it w/ 4 fingers?
Why does pushing on my left side (near my liver) cause something to drain down the back of my throat?
acid reflux
Wow. Thanks. I always wondered why I have a band there thought it was impacted colon
thank you so much
Hi! I love your videos. Thank you for the great info! Could you tell me what the opening music is, please? I love it!
Thanks John 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Thank you
Thanks,I need a reboot :)
What if you don't feel any soreness while pressing?
Hard to do this
I'm not blessed with your desk chair 😛 I did it standing..do you think that is effective...I sat on my bed with pillows propped behind me but notice I was using abdominal muscles as I'm suppose to relax them...Any suggestions?
Hello, I am just the past few days discovering I may have this issue. Would this produce palpitations with the stomach pushing up? Or perhaps from too tight underwire bra with much extra fat around midline? Also causing burps, gas, some bloating, flatulence. I originally thought I damaged my vagus nerve wearing these bras while working(alot of bending, pushing, pulling etc).
You’re pulling my leg
can this be dangerous? what if it turns out that you have something malignant ?
I thought the stomach is on the left side...
I have severe nausea, cramps, bloating, and burping when it will actually come up (when it doesnt it just forces the food up or acid in my stomach and causes more pain and discomfort). I also get heartburn and indigestion alot. I have been pregnant twice in a short time (theyre only 13mo apart) and have had tests done that show nothing.. ulcers, gallbladder sludge and stones, and kidney issues have been ruled out... any idea what it could be? i tried this exercise and it hurt alot but also helped and felt more comfortable after but this could just be placebo. Please let me know what this sounds like to you. also in case it matters ive tried stomach acid reducing pills and they never help much i still get heartburn, and zoloft doesnt help with the nausea either. the only thing ive tried that helps so far is baking soda water and it makes my stomach churn til i burp and im relieved for awhile but it always comes back within a few hours or so. or as soon as i eat again... any info would be great thanks! :D
Daggeress My alternative medicine doctor told me to lay off night shades (white potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, egg plant), lemon, anything with citric acid (a preservative in many things--check label), non gmo corn including all its syrups, chocolate with added junk, peanuts and a few other things. She also put me on a protein enzyme. Sounds like you are intolerant to some foods you are eating that an MD wont know a thing about. She also used this method to pull my stomach down and closed my ilio cical valve. Hope you can find someone who can test you.
sounds like a hiatal hernia.
Coconut oil
for?
It’s so sore wow ouch. Also I keep burping every time I try this exercise lol
Would this help with flatulence
+Milton This technique is more beneficial for acid indigestion and poor digestion. Here is a helpful article on herbs that tackle the flatulence and gas problem: lifespa.com/five-spices-digestive-world/
Be well,
Dr. John
Your Diaphragm should not go up when you breathe in.
I think I found the cause of my (sometimes extreme) shortness of breath. Is there a way to cure a hiatal hernia after this technique?
+Bobby Caldwell Thanks for watching. These types of health concerns are best addressed to your primary care physician.
Be well,
Dr. John
+John Douillard Thanks Doc.
John Douillard Hello Dr. ..Came across your video. ..Pretty useful. You say as bottom of the rib. Can you please help me to locate the exact point where my thumb need to push ? Because right now iam trying to push at a point, after the push I feel very drowsy. At the same time iam able to feel my hunger....
Bobby Caldwell hi I read your comment with interest regarding shortness of breath
I get the same thing it seems my diaphragm isn't smooth and as a result my breathing is jerky and also out of breath when walking.
I'd be interested to know what your symptoms are. Thanks
