Weight Loss

Awareness is the key to weight loss, once you train yourself to notice the natural signals present in the body at any given moment. - Deepak Chopra 

Chinese Medicine and Weight Loss

Chinese Medicine assists patients with weight loss by balancing blood sugar and hormone levels, increasing insulin permeability and balancing the digestive processes  so that you do not feel hungry. Chinese Medicine also balances you emotionally so you feel like taking better care of yourself and making better choices.

The Use of Acupuncture in Treating Obesity

- Hippocrates

The Purification Program 

Picture
Andrea routinely recommends the Standard Process Purification Diet to most of her patients that need to lose weight or just heal health concerns in general.  This program not only works wonders for patients that need to lose weight, but it also balances all the systems of the body especially the blood sugar, adrenals and hormones.  Inflammation is reduced which makes pain disappear, and prevents illness.  Digestive issues are healed and it has been shown to greatly improve adrenal fatigue, allergies, joint pain and more.

Testimonials
The supplements and smoothies that come with the Standard Process Purification Kit are medical grade, concentrated nutrients that balance you the way nature intended with all natural, organic ingredients packaged conveniently in capsules and powders.  Taken at prescribed times along with a mostly natural fruit and vegetable diet, Andrea calls this diet "the fountain of youth" because everyone she has seen go on it has dramatically healed of whatever ailed them at the same time that they have returned to a much healthier weight.

Benefits of QiGong for the Body-Mind-Spirit

Picture
The Chinese have for centuries incorporated QiGong (life force energy + cultivated skill) into their healthcare regimen.  QiGong is the practice of weaving focused intentions combined with breathing exercise and posturing of the body.   Benefits of QiGong are quite positive and include health maintenance as you age,  keeping your youthful vitality and increased healing after surgical procedures.  QiGong movements are gentle and have been shown to increase the immune system and reduce stress.  QiGong helps with concentration and invites a deeper awareness.

Naturally Healing Through Chinese Medicine 25+ Years

Andrea is the sweetest and kindest person.  She is the only one that took away my chronic pain.  The acupuncture she does helped me mentally and physically.  When you've had Andrea there is no one else that can compare to her.  Believe me!  I have tried to find just one acupuncturist that was as good as Andrea and they're just not out there.  When she took care of me she did the acupuncture treatments and also massage and the two combinations did wonders for me.  I could no longer use chiropractors because they just were excruciating pain for me.  But Andrea never hurt me and I am sensitive, but she was marvelous.

​ Unfortunately, she does not live in the state of Florida - she lives in North Carolina, and this is my problem.  Because if she lived in Florida, I'd be her first customer.  God bless your business Andrea and thank you for taking care of me.
