Weight loss
People frequently ask me if acupuncture can help with weight
loss. Everyone knows you need to eat appropriate portions and exercise
frequently when possible to control you weight.
However, there are a few areas in which acupuncture can help
with weight loss, and I have outlined them below:
1.
Acupuncture makes most people feel better.
When you feel better you are in a better position to control what you eat
and remain consistent with your fitness and nutrition program.
2.
Acupuncture reduces stress and has a powerful effect on balancing hormone levels
in the body. The hormones released when
you’re stressed contribute to weight gain.
3.
Water retention is another way acupuncture can help with weight loss. In Chinese medicine excess water
weight is called dampness. The
acupuncture treatment causes the patient to urinate more frequently or a greater
volume. I do this type of treatment
all the time, drain dampness, for many health conditions.
4.
Finally, when you start a new exercise program acupuncture can help quickly
resolve injuries and prevent them from becoming chronic injuries. Acupuncture is renowned for its
ability to help the body repair injuries.
