Acupuncture and Hypnosis for

Natural Weight Loss

Approximately 70 million Americans are overweight. 34% of our country is obese, which means that one is over 20 pounds his or her optimal weight. The vast majority of overweight people have been on a variety of diets and regimens. It is quite common to experience initial success on diets. Unfortunately, the good results are usually temporary and eventually spiral into the same or a higher weight than we were at prior to the diet.

Weight loss is probably an issue for most of the population.  Statistics show that over 65% of our population is over weight or obese.   If you are like most of us, you would like to lose o few (or many) pounds. 

 It’s likely that you have tried the latest exercise equipment or diet system just to be disappointed by the results – or lack of. 

 Why is it so difficult for so many of us to lose weight?  What has changed so dramatically in the last 20 yrs that has lead to this inability to lose weight?

 There are many factors that are likely to be contributing to the weight loss issue. 

• Lack of physical activity

• Over abundance of poor quality foods

• Stress

 Acupuncture to the rescue

 Acupuncture has been used by thousands of people to help them lose weight. Recently The International Journal of Obesity January 2009 issue just published a review of 31 studies on the efficacy of acupuncture in the treatment of obesity.  The systematic review was comprised of 3013 individual cases where acupuncture was used to reduce body weight.  They concluded “In light of the evidence, we believe acupuncture is a potentially useful adjunct in weight management”.  Read the Study

 How does it work?

 Acupuncture works on many levels and many systems of the body.  For weight loss it directly addresses the 3 primary causes of weight gain.

1) Acupuncture reduces appetite.  When done correctly acupuncture stimulates the nerves that tell your brain that your stomach is full.  Let me repeat that:

  IT TELLS YOUR BRAIN THAT YOUR STOMACH IS FULL!

 This is quite important when trying to lose weight.  This is the theory that ear stapling was developed from.  But is much safer when performed by a licensed acupuncturist.

2)   Acupuncture reduces stress.  To reduce cortisol levels, the body must enter a relaxation state. By relaxing the body, it can normalize harmful cortisol levels.  When cortisol levels are reduced, the body can heal.  Acupuncture works very well at balancing hormones and reducing stress.

3)   Acupuncture increases metabolism.  Your metabolism is the rate at which your body burns fuel.  The slower your metabolism, the more your body will store fat.  The higher your metabolism, the more your body burns fat.  Acupuncture is very effective at improving metabolism and increasing you body’s ability to burn fat.   This in turn affects your energy.  By improving metabolism, you will find you have more energy to exercise instead of crashing at the end of the day.

 Acupuncture is not the miracle cure or instant fix that everyone is looking for.  It still takes work to change your diet and exercise. 

 But acupuncture can be a very powerful boost to any weight loss regimen.

Success Story

After giving birth to my kids, I thought I would NEVER be able to take off the weight.

Hi, my name is Jodi and I was sick of being fat, tired, and pretty depressed about how I looked and felt. But after visiting the Huntington Wellness Center, I lost over 90 inches and 45lbs. I am now active and feel happier, healthier and more energetic than ever. Thank you HWC.
