“The root cause of weight gain is totally different from person to person. For example, it might be caused by an unbalanced lifestyle or habits, inflammation of organs, or mental-emotional issues. We prescribe Chinese herbal formulas customized just for you,” explains Dr. Ayako Mizuno, acupuncturist and owner of Plumeria. “The most remarkable point of this program is that it treats patients’ overall health conditions holistically. Patients will not just lose weight, but also obtain healthier bodies and minds.”
