Is Acupuncture Easier way to loss weight?
January 14, 2010
Acupuncture originated in China and has become a popular therapy across the world. Under the therapy revolve around the release of vital energy known as Qi in Chinese.
There are 20 meridians inside the body out of which 12 are primary i.e related to specific organs and other 8 are called secondary meridians. Any imbalance in the flow of Qi through these meridians caused by a blockage within the body is considered to be the cause of all disease and disorders including obesity.
As long as weight loss is concerned, acupuncture tries to restrict appetite and cravings for foods. It also eliminates excess water from the body and stimulates the pituitary gland, to burn extra fat. Acupuncture includes inserting five needles, four of which are targeted at specific organs - kidneys, liver, lungs and the nervous system.
American acupuncturists have developed a process of ear staples for loosing weight i.e only the upper and lower part of each ear is stapled. This adapted method is less safe than the conventional method of inserting needles because needles are removed after every sitting while the ear staples are left in the ears for days.
