What are the benefits of this package?
Acupuncture
Acupuncture strengthens the digestive system
Acupuncture could stimulate energy flow in the meridians of the spleen, stomach, liver and kidney. With accumulated stimulus, it could strengthen the digestion and increase the metabolism of the body to eliminate the dampness.
Another benefit of acupuncture is that it could help to adjust the sleeping quality and manage stress. Both of them are related to weight gain as well.
Ear seeds
Ear seeds manage the cravings
Ear seed is an acupressure treatment that places adhesive tape with cowherb seed on some acupuncture points in the ear to manage the cravings. Some acupoints we will use are the endocrine, shen men, spleen, stomach, hunger & thirst points.
It is convenient that you could press on the seeds to generate stimulus by yourself at home to prolong the treatment effect.
Cupping
Cupping- get rid of dampness and other toxins
Cupping would leave some marks on the skin. The darker the marks, the deeper the toxins. During the cupping process, it generates a power to force the dampness moving from inner layers to the superficial layers of the body.
And, during the recovering of the marks, it also brings more blood flow to the meridian points we place the cups, which further helps the body to get rid of the waste and restore more energy.
What causes excessive weight gain?
We believe that excessive weight gain (if it is not a healthy one) could be an outcome of accumulation of dampness in the body.
Dampness is a typical pathogen or waste in the body which is difficult to eliminate by normal body functions.
It could be related with deficiency in the spleen and stomach which influences digestion; or eating too much food could add on a burden to the spleen and the stomach: the undigested food becomes dampness instead of nutrients.
Hormonal imbalance and other related women’s health such as PCOS, menopause and hypothyroidism can also cause weight gain. When women reach their menopausal years, the sex hormone level will drop drastically. For example, in these times, the estrogen level will decrease and that would cause a lot of changes in the physical body. Along with this is the decline in the metabolic rate that could result in weight gain.
People who have PCOS also experience drop in their estrogen levels . When this happens, it can lead to weight gain. Lastly, hypothyroidism affects our thyroid glands. When you have hypothyroidism, the hormone in the thyroids would be insufficient. This would cause your body to react to it and could trigger weight gain, swelling and water retention.
