A NEW WAY TO FIND CONSTIPATION RELIEF!

A NEW WAY TO FIND CONSTIPATION RELIEF!
January 11, 2023TARA TROY, M.D. GastroenterologistConstipation
Exciting news!! Later this month Comprehensive Gastrointestinal Health will be one of a handful of centers in the United States with access to an amazing new innovation for individuals who suffer from chronic constipation – a drug-free vibrating capsule called Vibrant.

HOW DOES VIBRANT WORK?

When the bowel’s biological clock is out of synch, people are more likely to experience constipation. After the Vibrant capsule activation and ingestion with a glass of water, the capsule reaches the colon.
Vibrant®’s unique drug-free approach uses gentle vibrations to stimulate the colon mechanically. The pre-programmed timing of the mechanical stimulation improves natural colonic motility by leveraging the colon’s biological clock.
The disposable capsule is expelled with the natural bowel movements. Additionally, Vibrant offers a companion app to make the most out of the treatment., You can self-track the treatment progress, get reminders so you won’t miss a capsule, read interesting content and more.
Before bedtime, around 9 or 10 pm, the patient places the Vibrant capsule in the pod for activation.
  1. Green light means the capsule is activated
  2. Immediately swallow with a glass of water
  3. The disposable capsule is expelled with the natural bowel movements
Vibrant offers a companion app to make the most out of the treatment. You can self-track the treatment progress., get reminders so you won’t miss a capsule, read interesting content and more! Check out additional details at the website: https://www.vibrantgastro.com/
Call our office at 224.407.4400 for an appointment with a provider to help determine if Vibrant is an option for you!
