Weight Loss

Approximately 25 % of people in the United States are overweight and trying to lose weight. Billions of dollars are spent on weight loss programs and yet the failure rate remains enormously high. Fortunately, Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs can help a majority of these people.

If you want to lose weight, first you must change the emotional, mental, and life-style habits that caused you to have a problem in the first place. A licensed Acupuncturist can help you make these changes.

What can Acupuncture do to Help You Lose Weight?

Your body is made up of meridians that transmit energy that flows into each organ. With acupuncture and herbs we can manipulate those meridians which will in turn affect the organs responsible for proper digestion and metabolism. In addition, acupuncture is effective in treating and preventing depression and stress related over-eating.

What Can You Expect?

One can expect to lose 1-2 pounds per week. This is the healthy rate fat can be lost. Weight loss quicker than this will result in lower metabolism overall. This will then cause rapid weight gain once the program has ended. Acupuncture can help you lose weight in a healthy way so you can achieve your goal of a healthier new you.
