Fatty Liver Disease

Welcome to Aculosophy, the best acupuncture clinic in Toronto where our mission is to provide safe, natural, and effective treatments for individuals suffering from fatty liver disease.

UNDERSTANDING FATTY LIVER DISEASE:

Fatty liver disease, also known as non-alcoholic fatty liver, is typically detected through ultrasound imaging. It is important to note that when we refer to fatty liver, we are excluding individuals who consume excessive amounts of alcohol, as they may exhibit similar symptoms. Prevalence of Fatty Liver Estimates suggest that approximately 25% of adults are affected by this disease.

SYMPTOMS OF FATTY LIVER:

Common symptoms associated with fatty liver include being overweight, high blood pressure, high triglyceride levels, low HDL cholesterol, pre-diabetes, and diabetes. Additionally, it is often associated with a high waist circumference.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FATTY LIVER:

If left untreated, fatty liver can lead to progressive liver failure, including cirrhosis and primary liver cancer. It also increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases, such as heart attacks, arrhythmias, and strokes.

How We Can Help Treating Fatty Liver with Acupuncture

At Aculosophy, our acupuncture practitioners focus on identifying the root cause of fatty liver and addressing it to prevent recurring conditions. Acupuncture treatments improve blood flow to the liver by inserting tiny needles along specific acupuncture points. This increased circulation of the blood into liver and acupuncture aids in weight management as well. In addition to acupuncture, we utilize two other tools: Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) herbs and diet. TCM herbs are prescribed to restore proper liver function, while a low carbohydrate diet prevents insulin from driving fat storage and promotes fat breakdown. By transitioning to a diet rich in healthy fats and low in carbohydrates, we can reverse metabolic issues and support the liver, reducing fatty liver symptoms.

GETTING STARTED WITH ACUPUNCTURE:

Before beginning any treatment at Aculosophy, we recommend scheduling an Initial Exam with our licensed practitioner. This physical examination will help determine the most suitable treatment plan for your specific condition.

HOLISTIC APPROACH TO HEALTH IN OUR CLINIC:

In our clinic we treat all health problems holistically. Our goal is not only to address the symptoms of fatty liver but also to consider the bigger picture of symptoms and lifestyle habits that contribute to the condition. We place a significant emphasis on diet, providing our clients with a plan that avoids inflammatory foods, thereby expediting the treatment progress. Our ultimate objective is not just short-term relief from symptoms but also the correction of underlying causes.
