Weight Loss

Regrettably, a whopping 95 percent of North Americans fail in their attempts to lose weight. Oakville Acupuncture and TCM acupuncture treatments have been highly effective in helping our Mississauga clients not only lose extra weight, but keep it off permanently.

Traditional Chinese Medicine attributes excessive weight gain to imbalances in and reduced functioning of several organ systems, including the spleen and liver. Oakville Acupuncture and TCM’s skilled practitioners target the precise acupuncture points to balance these systems including the thyroid and endocrine glands that affect hormonal balance associated with excessive weight gain.

Weight loss challenges are also attributed in part to increased stress and anxiety levels that acupuncture can also effectively relieve. Natural, effective and painless, Oakville Acupuncture and TCM treatments counteract excessive hunger and stimulate the body’s endorphins to curb stress-related eating habits.

A recent study published in official acupuncture medical journals reported a significant decrease in appetite for patients who received regular acupuncture treatments. The number of treatments provided from our comfortable Mississauga clinic may vary according to a patient’s weight loss goals.

Programs are designed specifically for each individual. In-depth and thorough consultations focus on specific overeating patterns and any other digestive, medical or hormonal difficulties to create full assessment prior to treatment.

Acupuncture is not cure-all for weight loss, yet with a proper treatment plan to reduce anxiety and identify the underlying physiological causes behind unhealthy eating patterns; patients experience significant success in achieving permanent weight loss.

Consult the caring and supportive Oakville Acupuncture and TCM team for support and a plan that will work for you.
