Has anyone tried acupunture for weight loss?

Question

I know someone who is going to start this and it seems a little iffy to me. Sure it may help with hunger and cravings but all in all its about a changed life style of eating to live not living to eat and making food choices souly on nutrition and not what would hurt us the least. This method doesn't make sense to me, has anyone ever tired it and have any stories?

Answer 1

It probably works by changing the body's metabolism or something... wait and see if it works for the person you know - because with chinese therapies there is no answers to why it works... not that make any sense anyway, if it works then that's proof enough :p

but anyway it's not going to do them any harm whether it works or not, but they'll definitly feel alot better within themselves.

Some people may need to lose 20 lbs. while others may need to lose 200 lbs, but the bottom line is, if you are reading this website then at least we know that you want to lose weight and become slimmer.

The scary thing is that many people selling and or publishing the various weight loss program do not really know what they are talking about and sometimes have not really tested their various programs.

The fact is that these days, we are conditioned to get results (in anything) fast. Hence %CPopular%D (and unpopular) weight loss methods assume that there is a limit to how quickly you can lose weight. This is far from the truth.

Acupuncture (in combination with herbal medicine and dietary changes) helps to promote weight loss a little differently for each person - this is because acupuncture treats the PERSON, not the symptom.

In general, weight loss is achieved by clearing & strengthening the digestive system.  When our stomach, liver and/or spleen/pancreas doesn't work efficiently, we either gain or lose weight.  Acupuncture helps to reset the stomach & other digestive organs back to a healthy state.  This is a very simplistic explanation, by the way.

Because our bodies want to be balanced & know how to work efficiently intrinsically, they return to a healthy balance when nudged back to that balance.  That balance includes a healthy weight for that body.

Herbs will help smooth emotions, reduce appetite, increase energy, etc.

If you have questions, just visit with a licensed acupuncturist who treats weight problems.  They should be able to answer your specific questions well.

i have heard that it works with the same frequency as hypnosis, which is to say if you believe it will work then it probably will. the best way to lose weight is to stop eating refined sugar & fast food altogether.
