Weight loss Program
Acupuncture for weight loss
Acupuncture can stimulate the body’s energy flow (Qi) to impact factors that can reverse obesity such as:
- increasing metabolism
- reducing appetite
- lowering stress
- affecting the part of the brain that feels hunger
Weight gain, according to Oriental Medicine, is caused by body imbalance. That imbalance can be caused by a malfunctioning of:
- liver
- spleen
- kidney
- thyroid gland
- endocrine system
So, for weight loss, acupuncture treatments commonly target these areas of the body.
How many sessions will I need?
Although different acupuncture practitioners recommend different levels and lengths of treatment if you plan on losing 10 to 15 pounds, having several treatments a week for six to eight weeks is a common program.
