I interned with a Chinese Doctor in Beijing where women were successfully losing weight and I saw first hand how acupuncture can not only help metabolism but overall health. I also have techniques to help remove thought patterns that block weight loss. Send me an email if you have any questions about weight loss and acupuncture, respiraacuwellness@gmail.com.
