Let’s be realistic, losing weight isn’t easy. Maintaining a healthy weight is not just about looking good, it is vital for the proper functioning of your entire body. Any help you can get pushing away the food and shedding a few pounds is worth the effort.
How Can Acupuncture Help You Lose Weight?
The short answer is that acupuncture can balance the body on so many levels that your overall body functioning improves. Through the use of specific acupuncture points we are able to regulate your digestion, suppress your appetite, and decrease your overall stress level. Over time, the pounds will begin to drop.
But there’s a catch. In order for acupuncture to work in helping you lose weight, you need treatments 2-3 times per week to keep your body moving in the right direction. But won’t that be expensive? Well, that’s exactly why we offer our sliding scale of $25-$45 per visit. If acupuncture wasn’t affordable like this, how would it ever work for anyone?
Why Do You Have Such a Hard Time Losing Weight
It’s a sad truth, but most of our food today is poison to our bodies. Maybe it contains chemical toxins and hormones, it has been genetically modified, or it is just not “real” food. When our bodies become so toxic from daily consumption of these “substances”, it disturbs our digestion and the wonderful intestinal bacteria that help us to properly breakdown and absorb our food.
Or maybe your diet is decent, but your hormones and stress levels are all out of whack? Acupuncture is a functional medicine treatment that helps to regulate the body, including your endocrine and nervous systems. Everyone knows that stress increases cravings leading to overeating, but did you know internally your stress level can be causing an overproduction of cortisol? Cortisol is a stress-response hormone that in excess suppresses your metabolism.
Overeating + suppressed metabolism = more to love?
