It can support other treatments. Just acupressure is unlikely to be effective.
Acupuncture and herbs are excellent for fatty liver, but there needs to be a multifaceted approach. First of all, a diet change is critical. Eliminating foods that contribute to fatty liver such as alcohol, red meat, processed foods, excessive pharmaceuticals that can compromise the function of the liver. Movement toward a vegetarian diet with high fiber would be beneficial. Second, regular exercise and decreasing visceral fat would be next.Through this journey, acupuncture and herbs to unstagnate, cleanse snd rebuild the liver will be essential. In Eastern medicine, a liver that is unhappy has a tendency to store repressed anger and resentment. Processing and releasing that anger by moving toward a more positive state of self-compassion and self-forgiveness will be critical in creating an healthier, wholesome, vibrant liver.
Yes, it is helpful but my recommendation is to combine with herbal medicine treatment.
Im not sure about acupressure. Acupuncture, however, can reduce imbalanced liver enzymes, as shown through patient post treatment labs. Diet and exercise must also be a consideration to make a true and lasting improvement.
Yes.
Yes but diet will help the most.
Acupuncture not acupressure
Acupressure might help a bit, but I suggest you try acupuncture with herbs for fatty liver. I think this would help you more.
acupuncture and herbs can help with liver health. I do acupuncture which is stimulation of the points with needles. I do not do acupressure
Fatty Liver is a condition with multifactorial causes. like diet, family history, etc. In the Traditional Chinese Medicine theory, a good flow of blood and Qi of the liver will help with this condition we use acupuncture points and herbs to help with fatty liver but a change in diet habits will be a must.
Absolutely, acupuncture therapy has a considerable effect, has a high technical content, can trigger the fatty liver, activate and relax the liver, and dissolve the fat with special herbal tea. A common treatment plan for a single complaint would typically involve one or two treatments a week. The number of treatments will depend on the condition being treated and its severity. In general, it's common to receive six to eight treatments.
Acupuncture can reduce inflammation in the gut system and help fatty liver. Acupuncture also can help you control body weight to help fatty liver. The key point for fatty liver is to reduce your body weight, no alcohol, no drugs which cause liver damage.

Acupuncture may help, but treating fatty liver requires dietary changes, liver support, sometimes medications and IV support.
