Acupuncture Chinese Herbs Treatment for Weight Loss

Obesity is one of the main threats to people's health in modern societies. People try to lose weight by different ways including diet and exercise. But for those who always have big appetite or have physical problems to do exercise, it is harder for them to lose weight though normal ways. Acupuncture ,as a very popular therapy for losing weight in Asia and some Western countries, is an ideal way to help these people and other overweight people. Firstly, acupuncture works to reduce appetite and stop hunger feeling. Secondly, it helps to speed up metabolism and prevent fatty tissue from being produced and accumulated. Hence it is very helpful for middle-aged women and women in menopause or for those who can not do exercise if they want to lose weight. Herbal seeds are quite often used to maintain the treatment effect.

Case history

A lady in her forties came to us for her period problems. She always had PMT in her middle cycle, feeling moody and hungry. She was quite overweight at that time ( 18 stone and 9 pounds). We mainly treated her period problem, at the same, also helped her to loose weight. After about five months, her period was much better, and her weight was down to 15 stone.( We saw her twice a month roughly). After another five months her weight was even down to 13 stone and 5 pounds. She was very happy with the results. She feels that she has changed to a different person, more energetic and positive.
