But weight issues go more in-depth. Most conclusive obesity facts and statistics show that the two striking causes of obesity involve over-consumption of lousy food and lack of exercise. Overweight and obesity bring on several malfunctioning of internal organs and other related problems, such as:

• Cardiovascular disease, including coronary artery disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and stroke.
• Type II diabetes.
• Increased risk of certain types of cancer, kidney disease, liver disease, and arthritis.
• Breathing problems like sleep apnea.
• Depression and stress.
• Increases in early mortality and low life expectancy.
• Increased health care use.
• High economic costs to society regarding treatment services and working issues.

Chinese explain that complementary life forces yin and yang exist as energy –the “qi”– affecting both nature and human beings. When working together in harmony, they promote wellness, but disruption in the energy flow causes imbalance and illnesses.

Conventional medicine treatments include changes to diet, exercising, medication, and even surgery for severe cases. Oriental medicine offers a natural, less invasive healing approach, and a long-term solution to deal with weight problems.

TCM treats the human body as a whole, focusing on regulating and improve essential bodily processes more than curing illnesses. Treatments aim to achieve balance and restore health by correcting the energy flow.

Acupuncturists insert thin needles through the skin or use their hands to stimulate pathways in the human body called meridians; by pressing these acu-points, they restore energy flow and balance, boosting the proper functioning of all body’s systems.

It reduces inflammation, one of the most common related-conditions to overweight, obesity, and diabetes.
It helps reduce stress, depression, and anxiety; these emotions may often arise due to changes in diet, lifestyle, habits, and weight-loss expectations.
It promotes better sleep. Restful sleep allows your body’s metabolic processes to normalize and work more efficiently, helping weight loss even when sleeping.
It boosts your energy. The improvement in your energy flow reduces stress-related hormones and increases endorphin and serotonin levels, both “feel-good” hormones. Feelings of happiness have a positive impact on the mind and body, improve your mood, and ease the loss of weight.
It’s a cost-effective solution. Whether alone or with other techniques, acupuncture can be a less invasive way and long-term solution to help you lose weight. It may even help avoid nasty side effects of medication and costly or unnecessary surgical procedures.

However, we make sure the recommended technique and intent of the treatment fit for your unique condition, diagnosis, and criteria. You also can discuss any concerns about the procedure before the treatment begins.
