The study, authored by Dr. Edward Lamadrid, a Doctor of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, reports that 95 percent of its subjects lost weight in a six-week period after receiving regular acupuncture treatments. Of those subjects, another 50 percent continued to lose weight after treatments stopped.
“What’s particularly interesting and somewhat shocking about the study’s findings is that weight loss occurred across the board without much exercise or dieting, something everyone believes is essential to trimming down”, said Dr. Lamadrid.
