We do not recommend our weight loss program to women who are pregnant, actively trying to get pregnant, or breastfeeding. Other conditions may also limit or preclude participation in the program. Before beginning treatment, all patients complete an initial consultation, during which we review our patients’ health history and current condition to determine whether the patient is advised or can benefit from acupuncture for weight loss.Acupuncture and herbal medicine, together with dietary and lifestyle modifications suggested specifically for each patient support weight loss by curbing appetite, quelling cravings, boosting metabolism, improving digestion, reducing stress, regulating obesity-related hormones and enhancing the way nutrients are absorbed.
You can expect to experience some benefits, including better digestion, and improved energy and mood, as soon as the first week. Healthy weight loss is a gradual process, during which your body learns to recalibrate itself.

Herbs are taken daily to support the benefits of the program, and are prescribed and filled on a weekly basis.
Depending on what the other weight loss programs involve, it may possible or even optimal to combine programs such as exercise programs and certain dietary programs. However, be sure to discuss these other programs with your acupuncturist beforehand to ensure that it is safe and advisable to combine these programs with our Acupuncture Weight Loss Program.
