Weight Loss Boston
A revolutionary program to help you lose weight via acupressure.
BACKGROUND
Weight Loss Boston is new and holistic way of losing weight that uses the The Sadkhin Method, named after Dr. Sadkhin who identified 16 hunger control pressure points located just behind the ears. By placing pressure on these points, you stimulate the regions of the brain that control appetite, thereby reducing hunger.
The program, which involves placing gentle pressure on this points through the Chinese technique of acupressure, also includes a strict eating plan that helps you lose 5% to 10% of your body weight in the first ten days. You can expect to lose up to 25 pounds in your first month of the program.
Currently, this program is only offered in Boston.
PRO

- Includes a strict but healthy diet
- Acupressure has been used for thousands of years to relieve pain and promote relaxation

CON
- Program only offered in Boston
- Strict eating plan may promote feelings of diet deprivation
- Science has yet to prove that acupressure can result in weight loss
- No fitness guidelines provided
DIET and NUTRITION
The Sadkhin Method involves consuming a very strict and low-calorie diet of fruit, vegetables and whole milk. If you are lactose-intolerant, then a full-fat milk alternative such as rice, soy or oat milk is also allowed. Coffee, diet soda and other artificial or other stimulants are prohibited.
When you are hungry, you are instructed to apply gentle pressure to the various Sadkhin acupressure points behind your ear with a pair of small steel balls. The intention behind this technique is that you release certain appetite-suppressing effects in your body that make it possible for you to limit your food intake and not feel the annoying pangs of hunger.
When you go in for our initial consultation, you will be given thorough instructions on how to apply the technique, what to eat and when to eat.
EXERCISE
There are no exercise guidelines to follow.
CONCLUSION
Weight Loss Boston, or the Sadkhin Method, is a revolutionary way of dieting that uses acupressure and a low-calorie diet to help you safely lose weight in a short period of time. While the science behind using acupressure points for weight loss is still forming, acupressure has been shown to promote relaxation and relieve pain for a number of health conditions.
Even though the diet is strict, you are expected to not be hunger as long as you closely follow the acupressure routine.
Unfortunately, this program is only offered in Boston.

I did this program last winter and lost 22 pounds in about 3.5 weeks. I didn't believe in holistic medicine before I met Dr. Bespalko and I'm not sure I do now, but all I know is that I wasn't hungry and for the first time in my life I could stick to a diet. The beads can be uncomfortable if you rub them too hard, but it reminds you to stick to the program!!!!
