Weight Loss Clinic in Flushing, New York
About Regen Acupuncture, PC
Regen Acupuncture, PC combines the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine with modern understanding of metabolism and weight management to offer a holistic approach to sustainable weight loss. Our 4.8-star rated clinic has been helping patients in Flushing and throughout Queens achieve their weight goals through natural, time-tested healing methods that address not just weight, but overall health and vitality.
Our approach recognizes that weight gain often stems from imbalances in the body's energy systems, digestive health, hormones, and emotional well-being. Rather than simply focusing on calorie restriction, we work to restore your body's natural ability to maintain a healthy weight by treating underlying imbalances and supporting optimal metabolism through acupuncture, herbal medicine, and lifestyle counseling.
Services Offered
Our comprehensive weight management program integrates multiple Traditional Chinese Medicine modalities to address weight loss from various angles. Acupuncture treatments target specific points that help regulate appetite, boost metabolism, reduce cravings, and balance hormones naturally. We use ear acupuncture protocols specifically designed for weight control, which many patients find particularly effective for reducing food cravings between sessions. Chinese herbal medicine formulas are customized for each patient based on their individual constitution and weight loss challenges. These natural remedies help improve digestion, boost energy, reduce bloating, and support healthy metabolism. We also provide cupping therapy to improve circulation and aid in detoxification, and moxibustion treatments to strengthen digestive function. Dietary therapy based on TCM principles helps patients understand which foods best support their individual constitution and weight loss goals. Our practitioners also teach qi gong exercises and breathing techniques that support weight management and stress reduction.

What to Expect
Your journey begins with a comprehensive Traditional Chinese Medicine consultation where we assess your overall health, energy patterns, digestive function, and lifestyle factors. We examine your tongue, check your pulse, and discuss your medical history to understand the root causes of your weight challenges from a TCM perspective. Based on this assessment, we create an individualized treatment plan combining acupuncture, herbs, and lifestyle recommendations.
Treatments typically begin with twice-weekly acupuncture sessions for the first month, then reduce to weekly sessions as progress is made. Each session lasts 45-60 minutes and may include various techniques depending on your needs. We monitor your progress through regular check-ins and adjust herbal formulas as your body responds to treatment. Most patients begin noticing improvements in energy, digestion, and sleep within the first few weeks, with weight loss typically becoming apparent after 4-6 weeks of consistent treatment.
Why Choose Regen Acupuncture, PC
Our 4.8-star rating reflects our commitment to providing effective, personalized care that addresses the whole person, not just weight loss symptoms. What sets us apart is our deep understanding of Traditional Chinese Medicine principles combined with modern knowledge of nutrition and metabolism. This allows us to treat the underlying imbalances that contribute to weight gain rather than just suppressing symptoms.
Patients choose us because our natural approach works synergistically with the body's healing mechanisms rather than forcing changes through medications or extreme measures. Many clients report not only successful weight loss but also improved energy, better sleep, reduced stress, and enhanced overall well-being. Our treatments are safe, have no side effects, and often improve other health conditions simultaneously. We take time to educate patients about their individual constitution and provide tools for maintaining their results long-term.
Insurance & Pricing
Many insurance plans now cover acupuncture treatments, and we accept most major insurance providers. Coverage varies by plan, but many patients find that their acupuncture sessions for weight management are covered when treating related conditions like digestive issues, stress, or hormonal imbalances. We'll verify your coverage and help with insurance matters.
For patients paying out-of-pocket, individual acupuncture sessions range from $80-120. Initial consultations including treatment cost $120-150. Chinese herbal formulas are priced separately based on the specific herbs required, typically ranging from $30-60 per week. We offer package deals for multiple sessions and accept HSA/FSA payments.
First-Time Patient Tips
Success with Traditional Chinese Medicine for weight loss requires patience and consistency, as we're working to restore natural balance rather than forcing rapid changes. Most patients begin feeling improvements in energy and digestion within the first few weeks, with weight loss typically becoming noticeable after 4-6 weeks of regular treatment. It's important to follow herbal medicine instructions carefully and take formulas as prescribed.
We recommend combining treatments with the dietary and lifestyle modifications we suggest, as these support and enhance the effects of acupuncture and herbs. Results tend to be gradual but sustainable, with most patients losing 1-2 pounds per week once momentum builds. It's normal for progress to vary week by week, as your body adjusts and heals. We encourage patients to focus on overall improvements in health and energy levels, not just weight loss, as these indicate that deeper healing is occurring.
