Weight Management:  Every time you open the newspaper you can see the startling statistics regarding obesity in the Untied States.  Nearly two-thirds of U.S. adults are overweight and nearly one-third of U.S. adults are obese.  To clarify, overweight is defined by a Body Mass Index (BMI) > 25 to < 30; obesity is defined by a  BMI > 30. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as a killer in America, obesity is second only to tobacco.

Extra weight can put you at higher risk for these health problems:

¬      type 2 diabetes (high blood sugar)

¬      high blood pressure

¬      heart disease and stroke

¬      some types of cancer

¬      sleep apnea (when breathing stops for short periods during sleep)

¬      osteoarthritis (wearing away of the joints)

¬      gallbladder disease

¬      liver disease

¬      irregular menstrual periods

The Battle of the Bulge has driven American to spend between $40-50 billion per year to lose weight.  Unfortunately, the lack of success has driven people to fad diets, drugs and even surgery to combat the fat.  Now, there’s a better choice…

The AccuLaser Weight Management Program can help control cravings, stop the urge to overeat and speed metabolism.  All without feeling deprived!

A low power laser and bio-electric stimulation combine to stimulate acupressure points on the ears, hands, legs and feet. The sensation is warm, tingling or pulsating.  The application is external, making it completely non-invasive. Stimulating acupressure points with both a low power laser and bio-electric stimulation triggers the release of endorphins and raises serotonin levels (the brain’s “feel-good” chemicals). These chemicals help provide the feeling of satisfaction with less food and stimulate the metabolism.  Studies show that the effect of acupuncture on weight loss may be produced by enhancing the functions of both the sympathetic-adrenal system and the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal system.

After your visit, the endorphins build up over 12-24 hours and stay heightened for 4-6 weeks providing a significant window to address other aspects of weight management.

You will be given all the tools necessary to help ensure your success, including supplements, audio aids and a simple plan to help you achieve your goals.  Plus, we offer two different programs so you can choose which program will suit your needs.  And we’ll stick with you until you are satisfied.
