Can acupuncture help me lose weight?
Yes, it could help to control your appetite. But you still have to discipline yourself to cut down your food intake. What I have found over 48 years in practice in North America, we were misinformed about our food intake. The general concept of daily diet in here is 3 square meal a day and some snacks in between and the desert after dinner. If you add up all the food intake, you would surprise how much you are taking in daily. If you are young and active, you need two meals a day. As you get older, you should cut down more accordingly by your activity and your age. You have to remember the less food is the better. You will be surprised how little food you need to survive a day and we are eating every day to prepare to carry on the following day. After all, we are living a day at a time. And remember, the digestion takes the most energy out of your system and it is not worthy to waste your money and valuable energy to make your self ugly and sick. READ MORE

It would be the best treatment you could have for the back problems. Of course, it depends on what is the cause of your back problem.

Your physician should be able to tell you what the cause of the problem is and give you the general idea. READ MORE
Are medicines also involved in acupuncture treatment?
I personally do not recommend any medicine along with acupuncture treatment because it is not necessary. The general idea of prescribing herbal formula is to make more money.

There is old saying that the first is Acupuncture, the 2nd is Moxibustion and the 3rd is Herb. READ MORE

It may involve some type of change in life style but it will insure you free from back problem rest of your life. Unless you may encounter unfortunate injury again by accident. READ MORE
