ENCINO, Calif. -- How acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine help with weight loss
We live in a society in today’s day and age where food is easily accessible and unhealthy food is even easier to access. Unfortunately this leads us to eat whenever and wherever we want without thinking of the consequences it may have. Fortunately we are becoming slightly more health conscious and we are able to decipher the good and bad things to eat. With this epidemic obesity and weight gain is at an all time high here in the U.S and exercise and diets are not always able to help us loose this extra weight.
With our busy lifestyles and our unhealthy diets, loosing weight can be difficult. Usually we turn towards diet pills or specific diets like a “no carb” intake which can be very dangerous. Once we stop taking the diet pills usually the weight returns. This is why acupuncture or a good acupuncturist is key in your weight loss treatments and or regimen. Acupuncture can help in many ways with weight loss. There are key components that the acupuncturist must know and perform for the treatment to be effective. There are certain acupuncture points that the acupuncturist can select to regulate hormones, control appetite and calm cravings. In addition to the acupuncture an herbal formula can also be prescribed to help aid the process. The formulas generally can decrease hunger cravings and increase metabolism without any side effects. A good acupuncturist will also incorporate a proper diet and exercise. Guiding the patient on nutrition and what foods to stay away from and which foods to incorporate are also key in natural weight loss.

One must understand that the healthiest and most natural way to loose weight is through a proper diet and exercise. There are many other things that play a role as well. Like, portion size. At balance within we will guide and inform you on proper portion size and regularity of eating. For example, one thing to keep in mind to allow your metabolism to work effectively and efficiently is more consistent meals through the day but smaller portions. At balance within the acupuncturist will guide you on how many meals and what portion size to have per day. Generally speaking your acupuncturist should talk to you about how more meals and smaller portions will speed and increase your metabolic rate.
During the acupuncture treatment there are a combination of 5 main points that will be selected. These main point that the acupuncturist will select for your weight loss are generally located on the ear, stomach, and legs. The acupuncture treatment for weight loss helps to suppress hunger and increase your metabolic rate. Generally the acupuncturist should be gentle yet still creating a sensation on the ears so you know your are getting treated in the area but should not be painful.

Another very important conjunction to using acupuncture for weight loss is having a support system. It is not easy losing weight in general especially if it is above 20 lbs. It can be very draining, discouraging, and difficult. However, if there is a stable support system of family or friends or even a workout buddy it can make the process more enjoyable and more efficient. Having someone to talk to or push you through the process is a key item in loosing weight. Please keep in mind that acupuncture for weight loss is an aid to loosing weight, it is not the answer to the problem. Acupuncture helps with the process physically and mentally.
Lastly, another key factor in being able to lose weight with more ease, is staying hydrated. You must be drinking water, constantly in order to allow certain metabolic functions to occur in your body. Staying hydrated allows your blood to flow easier and stay oxygenated. Drinking water also allows your body to excrete any toxins through urination that may be hindering proper functions or interactions of your body to allow you to loose weight easier.
