Acupuncture is a wonderful flower in the treasure house of traditional Chinese medicine, and it can also play an important role in regulating obesity. The mechanism of applying acupuncture weight loss is mainly to adjust the metabolic function and endocrine function of human body. Commonly used acupoints are Liang Qiu, Gongsun and Neiguan. Acupuncture weight loss has a good effect on obese young people aged 20-50. Because at this age, the human body is relatively mature and various functions are relatively sound, it is easier to adjust various metabolic functions of the body through acupuncture treatment, promote fat decomposition, and achieve the effect of losing weight and lowering blood fat. Acupuncture can inhibit gastrointestinal peristalsis and gastric acid secretion, thus alleviating hunger and achieving the goal of acupuncture weight loss. During the treatment, anorexia, thirst, frequent defecation and fatigue may occur, which is normal. Because through acupuncture treatment, the internal functions of the body are constantly adjusted, metabolism is accelerated, and energy is constantly consumed, some clinical symptoms appear. These symptoms will disappear when the body regains its balance. The effect of acupuncture weight loss is related to the season and climate. Usually, the effect is faster in spring and summer and slower in autumn and winter. This is because the human body has a strong metabolism in spring and summer, and natural excretion is smooth, which is conducive to weight loss. If the symptoms such as dizziness, pain and nausea are all adverse reactions of acupuncture during acupuncture, the treatment should be interrupted immediately to prevent danger. Acupuncture weight loss is welcomed by many obese people because of its simple operation, safety and reliability, and less pain for patients. At present, auricular point acupuncture and auricular point sticking with traditional Chinese medicine are widely used in clinic. The following points should be paid attention to during the treatment. ⑴ Acupoint selection based on syndrome differentiation: According to the clinical characteristics of patients, choose the most suitable acupoints. For those with excessive appetite and hunger, the stomach meridian is the first choice; If the posture is edema and exercise leads to asthma, you can choose lung and spleen meridians; If the abdomen is full and the limbs are heavy, you should choose the triple energizer meridian. ⑵ Accurate positioning: When looking for acupoints for treatment, it is best to use an auricular point detector or probe to find the best sensitive point in the auricular point area, then accurately press the quasi-sensitive point, fix it firmly, and gently knead it until there is obvious feeling of getting angry and numb. ⑶ Strict disinfection: The whole operation process should be strictly disinfected, and all needles and instruments should be soaked in 75% alcohol or disinfectant for later use to prevent infection or pollution. ⑷ Regular massage: After burying the needle, massage half an hour before meals, between meals, in the morning and before going to bed at night, every time 15 ~ 30 times, and the massage should be gentle and even. 5. Increase exercise: During the treatment, proper outdoor activities, such as walking and jogging, will make the weight loss effect more obvious. In addition to acupuncture, foot acupuncture and ear acupuncture also have certain effects on weight loss. Among them, ear acupuncture therapy is more. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the ear is closely related to the meridians and viscera of the whole body. By stimulating different acupoints on the ear, the purpose of regulating the whole body function and treating diseases can be achieved. The specific contents of auricular acupuncture therapy include auricular point sticking and pressing seeds. Note that recent incidents of sudden death due to visceral injuries have occurred from time to time because of acupuncture weight loss, an unqualified beauty institution. The person in charge of the health department said that acupuncture weight loss and other medical cosmetology must be reported to the health administrative department for approval. In the relevant regulations to be issued this year, acupuncture weight loss, beauty and other medical behaviors will be strictly distinguished from traditional health care. Experts emphasize that acupuncture is mainly used for acupuncture, which is a medical method that invades the human body and has certain risks. Non-medical personnel shall not operate. However, the reporter found that despite repeated prohibitions, quite a few of the hundreds of acupuncture weight loss, beauty and rehabilitation institutions in Shanghai do not have medical qualifications. Some beauty salons forget their profits and take advantage of the rules, resulting in constant injuries. According to the search of the Municipal Museum of Traditional Chinese Medicine, in recent years, due to improper acupuncture and moxibustion, internal organs such as heart, lung and liver have been damaged, and even blood diseases such as AIDS have been spread, resulting in loss of life. Experts remind that the most important thing for acupuncture weight loss is to choose medical institutions with formal qualifications. For patients with contraindications in acupuncture weight loss, we should advocate a scientific and healthy slimming method combining diet with exercise. Related: acupuncture weight loss needs approval. The reporter investigated the uneven charges in acupuncture weight loss. As the weather gets warmer, acupuncture weight loss is also heating up sharply in Shanghai, and many beauty salons also post advertisements of acupuncture weight loss. According to the incomplete statistics of acupuncture industry association, there are about 70 beauty salons and barbershops in acupuncture weight loss. A few days ago, the reporter conducted a field visit. The reporter found that in different institutions, the fees in acupuncture weight loss are different. The reporter learned from the weight loss center of the outpatient department of Shanghai Acupuncture and Meridian Research Institute that there is a course of treatment in acupuncture weight loss 10 times, with a charge of 150 yuan each time and the highest course of treatment 1500 yuan. In beauty salons, the reporter found that in some places, a course of treatment costs 3,000 yuan, and the highest even reaches 6,000 yuan. To the reporter's surprise, not all the people who came here to accept acupuncture weight loss were fat. Many of them are young female white-collar workers with good figure. According to reports, there are mainly two parts in the female population, one is white-collar women, and the other is menopausal women. The reporter who sells acupuncture and slimming drugs learned that, generally speaking, in acupuncture weight loss, Chinese medicine has a plan, and regular acupuncturists will treat each patient according to the different conditions. However, no matter what kind of obesity, generally no more than 20 needles are inserted at one time. In some beauty salons, you can get hundreds of stitches at a time. Acupuncture pays attention to the effect of "getting angry", and only with a sense of acupuncture can it have a good effect. But many beauty salons don't understand these things, just stick them on the general acupoints. Therefore, although hundreds of needles were pierced all over the body, they were all shallow and could not achieve real results. However, it is the original intention of these beauty salons to fail to achieve results. In this way, they can consider other measures for dieters, such as making therapeutic recipes and taking their health care products and nutrients. Most of these nutrients are health foods such as cellulose and spiral bath. Many foods on sale contain appetite suppressants. After eating them, there may be some reactions, such as palpitation, chest tightness, dry mouth, and some irreversible damage to the heart. "Crash acupuncturists" are frequently released. An acupuncturist in a beauty salon revealed that they usually only received some short-term acupuncture training and rushed into battle. Another doctor, who asked not to be named, told the reporter that he 10 graduated from the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine more than 0 years ago and has a medical license. Last year, I served as the teacher of these short-term training courses. Most students come from beauty salons. Now some students start their own businesses, and some students do acupuncture in beauty salons. After short-term training, students will get a certificate of completion. According to reports, there are many similar training courses, some of which borrow university venues, and many training courses even steal the fake graduation certificates of the Municipal Institute of Acupuncture and Moxibustion and the Bian Que Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine. And all kinds of beauty salons use this kind of "deception" to win the trust of all kinds of guests and earn rich profits.
