The following link is from the Los Angeles Times. It is written by a physician with first-hand experience of acid reflux and how he approached resolving it for himself.

While, he doesn’t use herbs or acupuncture here, he tells the story of  revamping his lifestyle, eating habits and exercise to lose weight and rid himself of the acid reflux (GERD).  Had he considered utilizing Chinese medicine for this issue, he would have also gotten considerably much better. Specific combinations of herbs and acupuncture have proven successful for many people with this condition. Also, I offer specific advice for sleeping and stress reduction that also help.
