ave you been trying forever to lose weight and still feel like you are taking sand off the beach with a teaspoon? Are you tired of the shakes, meal replacement bars and grapefruits? You can enhance your weight loss efforts through the use of acupuncture, a safe and effective treatment to help you lose weight.
The idea that you could lose weight by lying down on a table while needles are inserted probably seems ridiculous and right along the lines of Ouija boards and magic eight balls. Skepticism is good, but not in this case. Acupuncture has been proven effective at promoting weight loss for a number of reasons and is used widely as a weight loss tool.
Traditional weight loss methods include daily exercise and calorie restriction. There are no other ways to reduce weight. Food is energy and food that is not used as energy is stored. The more you eat and the less you move, the more food stores you have.
Unfortunately, weight loss is not as simple as eating less and moving more. Any person who has dieted for a long time can tell you that they have tried this and it doesn’t work for them. Weight loss is complex and can very frustrating to the person who has hit a plateau and is no longer losing weight despite diet and exercise.
Sometimes, when you eat too little, your metabolism will slow way down because your body believes that it is now starving. Your body naturally tries to conserve the energy stores when it believes that a famine has hit. Your metabolism slows down, you eat even less because you haven’t lost weight this week, and your metabolism goes even slower. This is a downward spiral for people who can’t lose weight because they can’t grasp that eating more will help them lose weight in the long run.
One of the main reasons acupuncture works for weight lossis that acupuncture promotes a healthy digestive system.With a strong digestive system that is in balance, you are better able to process food and retain necessary nutrients. Cravings will be reduced when you body is in balance.
Secondly, acupuncture can help control your appetite. You will be able to resist the urge to overeat much more effectively after you receive an acupuncture treatment. Controlling your appetite is one of the hardest things to do when you are trying to lose weight.

Who would think the fabulous Jennifer Lopez needed to lose weight, but she credits acupuncture and herbs for her 15 lb weight reduction. (Photo/David Gabber/PR Photos.)
In my situation; I am very confused with weight loss due to my recent diagnoses with Stage IV Breast Cancer met to Bone.
Prior to this diagnosis, I battled overweight issues due to another diagnosis of bipolar (affective depressive disorder). The medications I was on *specifically Abilify along with medications for depression I’be been on for years (I never had weight issues with anti-depression med’s).
My ‘natural’ weight with exercise was easy (120-130) until Abilify was introduced in my later 40’s; weight went up regardless of doing exersize to 160…170…187lbs). I stopped Abilify immediately. The weight issue has been 140-156). This was approximately 6 months prior to the breast cancer started. Know I cannot get to walk a full block. I went to get consultation after chemo ended, the Neurosergon cannot do anything do to the bone cancer alone my spine. Along with bone cancer, I have COPD, I’ve got to quit smoking. My start date is 2/14! I am useing a gum approach, Zonnic, and join a cessation support group.
To wrap up, I have 2 support groups, Boosem Buddy’s for advanced cancer, and now a new group to quit smoking. I really want to get the weight down, especially while I’m quitting smoking. I would very much like to get a moment with you. I have Staywell, Wellcare Florida…they have a lot of alternative medical services, why Acupuncture is not involved with them is beyond reason…I’ve even call Staywell for this reason, and they stated all they need to do is call and fill out the paperwork. So I need to know if you have financial out of pocket for disability programs.
I hope this comment section you offered wasn’t too long. I tried to keep it short as possable and I look forward to our meeting.
