Acupuncture for weightloss?


so I'm gong to the acupuncturist for the first time tomorrow for joint pain issues, but I've also been reading about acupuncture for weightloss issues- does this work? has anyone tried this?

It all depends on the cause of the overweight and on the skills of the acupuncturist.

It will not be done at the same time as the joint pains as it will not be on the same points.

Talk to the acupuncturist tomorrow and he/she will tell you exactly.

The best of luck!

There are no studies done that support the efficacy of acupuncture in treating weight loss. I'm not sure if any studies have been done at all with this, but hey, acupuncture is all about energy fields and since all disease is caused by unbalaned energy fields acupuncture can certainly cure obesity. It has cured cancer, hasn't it?

Maybe the placebo effect will help you lose weight, like it helps lessen your joint pain.
