Acupuncture and cupping in traditional Chinese medicine is to regulate the body's endocrine by stimulating the relevant acupoints of the body, and finally achieve the purpose of losing weight. Acupuncture and cupping are considered as traditional Chinese medicine methods to lose weight. Compared with other methods, acupuncture and cupping are painless, safe, effective and non-rebound methods to lose weight. Acupuncture and cupping in traditional Chinese medicine can not only treat according to syndrome differentiation, adjust the whole body, dredge meridians, promote human metabolism and achieve the overall weight loss effect. Moreover, acupuncture points can be selected according to obese parts, and local acupuncture points can be selected along meridians to promote local metabolism and eliminate local fat, so as to achieve the purpose of partial weight loss, that is, the effect of "reducing where you want". Modern medicine believes that simple obesity is often accompanied by endocrine disorders, and various hormones, especially insulin, sex hormones, adrenocortical hormones, leptin and other abnormalities, can be adjusted by acupuncture, cupping and other methods to make them normal; On the other hand, Chinese medicine dialectically analyzes that obesity is mainly related to the functions of liver, spleen and kidney. Acupuncture and cupping can regulate viscera, and make liver, spleen and kidney function return to normal. Many obesity occurs in adolescence, postpartum and menopause, especially in women, which is a period of very drastic endocrine changes. In the process of acupuncture and cupping to lose weight, many women with symptoms such as irregular menstruation and amenorrhea do not treat these symptoms in the process of losing weight, but often acupuncture can improve the original symptoms, which is the result of endocrine improvement. Chinese acupuncture and cupping do not advocate "hunger therapy". Different from many weight-loss methods, in the process of acupuncture and cupping, excessive diet control is not emphasized, especially "hunger therapy" is not advocated. Because excessive dieting may lead to anorexia, digestive organ dysfunction, serious consequences, and may also lead to a decline in metabolic function, which is a potential factor for further obesity. Once a normal diet is restored, the patient will continue to gain weight, and may even be fatter than before. The biggest advantage of Chinese medicine acupuncture and cupping to lose weight is here.
