Question about acupuncture.?

I would like to lose weight and I am always tired. So, has anyone had acupunture and it worked or was it a waste of money?

I recommend you see a holistic practitioner, an expert in a few alternative medicines. They'll be able to evaluate your lifestyle and eating habits and determine what your best path is.

Most people notice a change in just changing their nutritional supplements or getting started on nutritional supplements.

In traditional chinese medicine acupuncture is used as a later option after trying other alternatives.

Feel free to ask if you need more info.

If it is an experienced practitioner, it won't be a waste of money. Your energy level should increase considerably so that your tiredness goes away.

Acupuncture is also used successfully by people who wish to lose weight, but it is difficult to predict the outcome as all is dependant on the cause of the overweight.

Acupuncture will help you curb your appetite, but you have to control the intake as well, otherwise it will not work.

Wishing you all the best.

Acupuncture has never been clinically proven to be any more effective than the placebo response.

It is based on the implausible and completely unproven notion there there is an unmeasurable energy force running through invisible meridians that can be accessed through invisible portals in the body called chakras.

It can offer temporary relief of pain and stress, but this is due completely to activating the body's placebo response for which we do have a biochemical explanation.

Save your money, it can do nothing to help you lose weight or become "less tired"

Acupuncture is at best a placebo. save your money

It worked for me in that I quit my 2 -3 pack a da. cig. habit. As to weight lose I do not know.
