Weight loss - The Balanced Way Program

Are you are tired of all of the fad diets out there that tell you conflicting stories of how you should restrict your diet? This weight loss plan is different. Rather than being developed for commercial purposes, this technique is based on an ancient Chinese healing philosophy. Chinese families pass this program along from generation to generation.
Most of us struggle to lose weight. We are told that weight loss is as simple as burning more calories than we consume. This is logical, but this simple concept ignores our metabolisms. The energy our bodies use to function outside of exercise has a significant impact on calorie consumption. Chinese Medicine has a term for this energy used by our organs, Qi (Chee). This energy is what processes the food we eat and moves nutrients into the body’s cells. If the functional energy of our organs is strong and well balanced, our metabolisms will be strong and weight loss is made easier.
The Balanced-Way Program includes a combination of acupuncture and nutritional counseling. We guide patients to permanent weight loss through a more balanced lifestyle. Find Your Balance offers support, promotes accountability, gives hope and inspires strength. Our program is designed to take place over a five week period. During this time, acupuncture treatments will promote balance of function of your organs. As your body balances, you may find that your food cravings change. For example, if you typically crave sugar, this craving may be satisfied by a shift towards foods that are naturally sweet such as sweet potatoes or fruit.
Acupuncture is a key component of the Balanced-Way Program for the following reasons:
• Acupuncture can suppress the appetite.
• Acupuncture can promote the sense of a full stomach.
• Acupuncture can increase levels of serotonin, a neurotransmitter involved in controlling emotional eating behaviors and body weight.
• Acupuncture can increase your energy level.
• Acupuncture can assist in maintaining regular bowel-movements.
