Even the most dedicated fitness buff and healthy eater can have a hard time saying no when food cravings hit, so what do you do when willpower alone won’t prevent you from reaching for the cookie jar?

Many people are turning to complimentary medicine to achieve their weight loss goals, making acupuncture weight loss one of the hottest topics around.

One-third of Americans now use complimentary medicine, sometimes in conjunction with traditional medicine, to treat ailments, according to the Annals of Internal Medicine.

Acupuncture causes the body to release endorphins and these natural chemicals influence a particular area of the body.  The main goal of acupuncture weight loss is to stimulate the patient’s digestive system and metabolism.  While acupuncture weight loss uses acupuncture as the main foundation of this process, it is always married with an herb regimen.

The natural herbs used in an acupuncture weight loss regimen balance the digestive system, reduce appetite and improve the patient’s metabolism.  All of these processes are vitally important in a successful acupuncture weight loss plan.
Acupuncture weight loss programs also use methods such as light exercise using a special exercise machine called a Vibrating Exerciser.  Patients report the most amazing results from this apparatus.  After just 15 minutes on this machine, one can feel similar results to an hour of a good hard work out, without the time and effort.  The body’s muscles are toned and one experiences a sense of invigoration that a good physical work-out can bring.

It is also important to note that acupuncture weight loss is not an instant weight loss solution.  Acupuncture weight loss is a gradual approach that is focused on turning the body and mind into a healthy balanced machine.

As one of a few select Doctors of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (DAOM) in the United States and extensive experience as an educator, I am currently a Professor of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine at Samra University.
