Oh My, It’s May! That means Fun in the Sun is on its way~ How is your beach body lately?

WEIGHT loss BlogMany times when we post a blog, it has very useful tips about health, wellness, illness prevention, and chronic pain issues. But once in a while its nice to focus on more fun things like what you will be wearing to the beach in the coming months, and how you feel about the body you’re wearing! Many of us look at how our blouses and pants or muscle shirts are fitting after the holidays are over and get reinvigorated about our diet and exercise plans.

Though Acupuncture and Asian Medicine can’t go back in time and erase that cheesecake we ate or the fudge we got for Christmas, or the hours we spent relaxing during the recent downpours, it can help you regain your physique! Acupuncture and Asian Medicine can help people lose weight and feel better. It can help your body digest nourishment more efficiently, help relax your mind to relieve stress thus lowering Cortisol levels and reducing belly fat.  Acupuncture is so effective at helping people look and feel better that there is an entire branch of Acupuncture called ‘Cosmetic Acupuncture’. You may think this sounds very silly, but it is effective and less expensive than cosmetic surgery by thousands. The best part of losing weight with the help of Acupuncture and herbs is that there are no side effects like one might get from taking medications or yo-yo diets or surgery. Acupuncture will help treat the internal issue related to your weight gain such as a reduced metabolism, or an emotional component associated with over-eating. Acupuncture is risk free, natural, and effective.

If you have a history of struggling with your self confidence or your self image and want to try something different to help you feel great about your body, then Acupuncture may be the solution you are looking for.  One key perk for using Acupuncture and Herbal Remedies to lose weight is that when you lose weight, we will help you keep strong energy so the weight loss doesn’t cause fatigue.

At Jun’s Acupuncture, we utilize something called the Venus Diet, along with an ultraviolet cupping system, and Acupuncture to help people lose weight and feel great. Herbal formulas are also available upon request for patients that want to try them. The herbal formulas used by Dr. Jeon are classical formulas used for thousands of years and taught parent to child in Korea and at TCM Schools for treatment of issues like this where other methods may fail. They are organic, safe, and holistic.

We would like to invite you to partner with us this year to prepare for your beach body from the comfort of our Acupuncture clinic. Here you can be treated for your ailments and assisted with your desires to look great and be confident. Give us a call to set up your consultation today. After your consultation, the Doctor can set you up with a treatment plan based on your needs and body constitution. Do you want to experience Amazing Weight Loss?

Stress Will Make You Ill!!! Let us give you some suggestions…..

 

stress free

During this time of year everyone is worried about taxes, deductibles, flood insurance, fire insurance, 401K’s and every other life issue that arises at the beginning of each year.

So, how can we help you? Acupuncture is a great way to reduce your stress and help your body stay healthy. When the body is stressed, their is poor sleeping and anxiety as well. A person cannot maintain health if they are not sleeping well and anxious!

Acupuncture has shown to reduce stress in recent studies. In an article from the Huffington Post they reported that researchers discovered that the “…[electronic] acupuncture blocks the chronic, stress-induced elevations of the HPA axis hormones and the sympathetic NPY pathway,” [http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/03/16/acupuncture-could-help-prevent-stress_n_2883996.html]  In the same article, it states that “The researchers discovered that stress hormones were lower in rats that had received [electronic] acupuncture. Results were published in the Journal of Endocrinology.”

It is wonderful to see scientific evidence that Acupuncture works to relieve stress, and we are glad to support more studies about the effects of Acupuncture for stress reduction, pain relief, and general longevity.  If each person can reduce the level of stress they experience on a daily basis, the incidence of disease will be far less.  We like to look at Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine as a life style that can not only treat disease but also prevent it. By reducing your level of stress, you will sleep better, and have lower anxiety; this  will allow you to be a healthy individual enjoying your life!

“A Healthy and Stress Free Life is Our Ultimate Goal!”

Acupuncture Treatment for Allergies

Acupuncture Respiratory

 

During these windy, dusty, dry times in Southern California, especially Los Angeles, Santa Clarita, San Fernando Valley, Palmdale and Lancaster; allergies can be brutal on our every day functioning. Stuffy nose, itchy watery eyes, sneezing, and headaches are common side effects of allergies. In the Chinese Medicine school of thought, these allergies are caused by the pathogen of wind. If, like for many people, your allergies get worse during the Santa Ana winds, this is not a far stretch.

In the Chinese Medical System, wind as a pathogen can be treated with acupuncture and herbal therapy. Acupuncture and Herbal Therapy serve to strengthen our immunity to pathogenic influence. They help our bodies stay in balance by reducing stress, creating harmony, promoting the smooth flow of Qi, and increasing the bodies Wei Qi, or Protective Qi. The Wei Qi, or Protective Qi acts like armor on the body to fight against pathogenic influences such as Wind-cold, Wind-heat, Dampness, or Dryness which all translate as colds, flues, fevers, arthritis, swelling, parched throat and skin, infections, and general malaise. It is especially difficult for people with weak Lung energy to fight off infection. Individuals who have a history of Lung energy issues like Asthma, Upper Respiratory Infections, Emphysema, Pneumonia, or frequent coughs are at greater risk for pathogenic influence during allergy season.

In the system of Chinese Medicine, it is our goal to increase the bodies strength to avoid illness in the first place. It is very good advice to seek acupuncture and herbal therapy before the Allergy Season is in full swing. It is important to change the bodies constitution to create strength and defensive energy before an acute condition occurs.

In some cases, illness is not prevented and in these cases, treatment of an acute condition must occur. In the treatment of an acute condition, Jun’s Acupuncture may utilize heat therapy, acupuncture, herbal therapy, dietary suggestions, or other holistic means to help the individual through the allergy season comfortably.

If you seek treatment before you get ill, that is the best choice, and we will help you. If acute illness occurs, Jun’s Acupuncture will still be able to help you get better faster and stay well.
