Course Overview
Acupuncturists' offices receive more and more people with the desire to lose weight every day. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, it is common for the professional to associate the difficulty of losing weight with the energy imbalance of the Spleen.

However, in clinical practice it is possible to see that, many times, the imbalance of the Spleen is not the main factor of difficulty in a patient's weight loss and other more important imbalances must be treated so that weight loss is possible.

In this lecture I will teach you how to diagnose and treat with diet therapy, systemic and auricular acupuncture points the most common imbalances that make it difficult for our patients to lose weight.

    *CEU/CPD Approvals

    Some accreditation bodies have course approval expirations. If the approval expires, you will see a notice next to the name with a date of expiration: "[Until YYYY/MM/DD]". Please factor this date into your own renewal deadline. If an approval expires, you will be able to request that it is renewed and we will submit it for you within 2 business days. Renewals normally come back to us after 30 days. If your accreditation body is not listed under the "Approved" section, you may find it under the "Pending" section. That means that it is either currently pending approval, or that it is available for you to request: "[Upon Request]". New course approvals usually come back to us after 45 days. We use an automated system within our platform that allows you to make these requests in an easy and convenient way. Just visit the course page in your Net of Knowledge account and click the "Request Approval" button at the top. Each "Course and CEUs/CPDs" purchase grants you 1 request per accreditation body. If you request a course approval and do not complete it before its new expiration date, you will need to purchase another "CEU/CPD Add-On" to make another request. If the course is ineligible for approval with an accreditation body due to their subject-matter policies, it will be listed as "[Ineligible]", and no requests will be possible for the course.
