Weight Loss

Over 45 percent of Americans are overweight and trying to lose weight. Acupuncture can help to lose weight by improving digestion and metabolism, calms mind, body and spirit, reduces appetite and calms food cravings.

Auricular (ear) acupuncture is a very effective added treatment for weight loss. The human ear has been described as a micro-system of the body in an inverted fetal position; it contains points relating to all major organs and body parts.

Treatments Needed

Generally treatments are scheduled once a week for 8 to 12 weeks or until the goal weight has been reached. The treatments often include a combination of auricular (ear) and body acupuncture, ear seeds, herbs and or supplements, abdominal massage, and food and lifestyle recommendations.

Most patients fall asleep during treatment and have no side effects!

Acupuncture prescriptions are specially designed for each patient, so points will be added or eliminated to balance your body!
