What’s the deal with acupuncture point burial threads for weight loss?

It is a treatment method that integrates multiple therapies (acupuncture, buried needles, tissue therapy) and multiple effects (acupuncture, post-injury action of body tissues, needle retention, tissue therapy). It is a method to treat diseases through the continuous stimulation of acupuncture points by the thread and its absorption by the body. It has the therapeutic effect of “thread instead of needle”. According to the different physique and symptoms of the obese patients, we use the method of Chinese medicine to look, smell, ask, and cut to determine the type of evidence, and then use the corresponding acupuncture points to treat the disease with the method of buried thread. Generally, 8~10 acupuncture points are selected for treatment each time, once every 1-2 weeks, 3~4 times as a course of treatment, usually requiring 1~2 courses of treatment. The treatment is suitable for obese patients of all ages. In comparison, obese patients who are healthy and do not have serious endocrine disorders, abnormal fat metabolism and abnormal glucose metabolism have faster results, and obese patients who have obvious weight gain can effectively stop their crazy weight gain, bloated body shape, abnormal appetite and other symptoms, especially for patients who do not have time to do ordinary acupuncture treatment at work. At present, our department also applies acupuncture points combined with pharmacological interventions to treat obese polycystic follicle syndrome, which can effectively regulate symptoms such as irregular menstruation, amenorrhea and low menstrual flow in obese women with polycystic follicle syndrome. In addition, the department also carries out the treatment of constipation, insomnia, neck pain, lumbago, shoulder pain, tennis elbow and other kinds of pain evidence, and has achieved significant results.
