Weight Loss
What causes weight gain?
Weight gain can be caused by a number of issues in a person’s life, including:
- Stress
- Hormonal changes
- Metabolism changes
- New medications
- Poor diet
- Digestive issues
- Depression and anxiety
Gaining weight can be difficult for people, causing social strife and stress alongside other existing conditions. While diet and exercise can help a person to lose or maintain weight, some people need more help.
How can acupuncture and Oriental medicine help with weight loss?
Acupuncture treatments help to maintain balance in the body and sustain natural blood flow and circulation, which helps the digestive system and increases the metabolism. For many people, the treatment can create a calming effect and help with energy. Dr. Ko and his team create personalized treatments for every patient depending on their health conditions to ensure the treatments they receive address the underlying issue that causes the weight gain.
What is the 120 Diet Program?
Dr. Ko and his team at 120 Acupuncture Clinic have developed a program called the 120 Diet Program that combines acupuncture treatment with a specially formulated herbal supplement developed by Dr. Ko. The blend of ingredients in the supplement helps the body detoxify the wasteful materials in the body each day, which in turn helps to reduce fat. The 120 Diet Program is specially designed to reduce weight naturally without using any chemicals.
