Is there anyone who has experienced in weight gain according to chinese medicine and acupuncture protocols ?

Are you asking to help people gain weight with acupuncture, or lose it? If lose it, read this previous post. If gain, please clarify (in what cases, post chemo?, post illness?, etc.) and I can offer some suggestions.

Dear Chad,



I mean inducing weight gain in lean-structured persons (no history of previous disease and/or no involvement of thyroid dysfunction).
