Other Conditions
Overweight
Randomised controlled trials published recently have confirmed the benefits of acupuncture in helping patients in their battle with overweight and obesity.
- Trigger the body to produce endorphins and serotonin, relax the nervous system, soothe stress
- Adjust the digestive system, improve the process of digestion, curb appetite, and control food cravings
- Regulate obesity-related hormones, boost the metabolic rate causing you to burn calories at a faster speed
- Lower blood cholesterol, blood sugar and blood pressure
- Combat obesity and recover pre-menopause bodily condition
Smoking
Acupuncture can help to:
- Trigger the body to produce endorphins, serotonin, dopamine and other neurotransmitters --- the body’s natural pain-relieving and “feel-good” chemicals
- Relax the nervous system and soothe stress, produce a calming and tranquillising action
- Enhance the life energy flow, regulate the autonomic nervous system, control the craving for nicotine, reduce anxiety-like behaviour and symptoms following tobacco withdrawal
The treatment is normally twice weekly to begin with and then once a week. It is best to refrain from smoking for at least five hours before your first treatment. Usually, 7 sessions are recommended.
Sinusitis and Hay Fever
Acupuncture is the ideal complementary therapy to relieve both superficial symptoms and the root cause of the Sinusitis and hay fever themselves.
Acupuncture can trigger the body to produce endorphins, serotonin, dopamine and other neurotransmitters --- the body’s natural pain-relieving and “feel-good” chemicals, improve the immune system, reduce inflammation and allergic reactions, enhance local microcirculation, and eliminate the allergic and irritant symptoms of sinusitis and hay fever.
