My Answers

Is there an acupuncture treatment for weight gain?
Acupuncture helps balance the body. So, ideally, with consistent treatments, proper nutrition, and supplements, then, your body would be in a better position to be optimally heathy. This should include ideal weight. If, at that point, you’re not seeing the changes you wish, then I’d recommend integrating western medical diagnostics to investigate your complete blood work, thyroid panel, as well as just a routine physical to determine more deeply your situation.

Does having acupuncture hurt?
It’s a common concern if acupuncture hurts. It’s a very subjective answer. In my personal experience, it has a lot to do with the provider’s energy and technique, as well as the energy and condition of the person. With my own practice, I ensure to be gentle enough to not feel my own needles. This helps my patients have a more pleasant experience. Additionally, I allow my patients to know everything I’m doing the first treatment to calm nerves. Also, we make sure to focus on the breath so as to relax even more so the treatment is even more pleasing and less likely to cause discomfort. Most people, if they do feel something, it is like a pinch. I hope this helps qualm your fears about acupuncture. All the best for your health. READ MORE
