Acupuncture for weight loss
All diets work if you stick to a low calorie plan throughout. But today, we tend to eat in excess – due to our modern lifestyle, stresses and psychological “triggers”. Highly restrictive diets can cause yo-yo dieting and a fluctuation in body weight can also result in malnutrition, organ damage, a slow metabolic rate and imbalances within your body. Acupuncture helps to address both the physiological and psychological aspects of weight loss. This holistic alternative drains excess fluids, relieves irritability, reduces appetite, improves metabolism and eliminates food cravings – for permanent weight loss. According to clinical trials conducted by the World Health Organisation, participants who received acupuncture lost more than three times the body weight of a control group. And Polish researchers who examined acupuncture as a diet aid found participants lost 10 more pounds, compared to those who merely reduced their calorie intake. Holistic Sanctuary
