Regrettably, a whopping 95 percent of North Americans fail in their attempts to lose weight. Elemental Healing acupuncture treatments have been highly effective in helping our Aspen clients not only lose extra weight, but keep it off permanently.
Traditional Chinese Medicine attributes excessive weight gain to imbalances in and reduced functioning of several organ systems, including the spleen and liver. Elemental Healing’s skilled practitioners target the precise acupuncture points to balance these systems including the thyroid and endocrine glands that affect hormonal balance associated with excessive weight gain.
Weight loss challenges are also attributed in part to increased stress and anxiety levels that acupuncture can also effectively relieve. Natural, effective and painless, Elemental Healing treatments counteract excessive hunger and stimulate the body’s endorphins to curb stress-related eating habits.
A recent study published in official acupuncture medical journals reported a significant decrease in appetite for patients who received regular acupuncture treatments. Acupuncture can help to increase metabolism, which is useful for weight loss. The number of weight loss acupuncture treatments that you will receive at our comfortable Glenwood Springs clinic may vary according to your individual weight loss goals.
