Applying the laser to various points on the body can facilitate weight loss by giving the person a feeling of Ill being which can suppress the desire for excessive and inappropriate food. The laser can also stimulate metabolism and thereby enable the body to utilize food efficiently instead of storing it as fat.

Diet and exercise are helpful in any program of weight reduction. Most people who come for the laser treatment for weight control have been given diets and exercise regimens before. They may have good knowledge of what they should and shouldn't eat, but they feel depressed or irritable when they try to stay on a diet.

Dr. Alan Kesner  offers you a number of different food plans to choose from or you may continue to follow any diet or exercise program you may currently be using. I do not prescribe any drugs or force you to follow any strict diets.

A succession of laser treatments over a three to six week period is recommended initially. You may require additional treatments, depending on desired weight loss goal.

The weight loss to be expected is about four to eight pounds per month. weight loss should continue after the treatments are completed until normal weight is achieved. The effects of the laser usually last at least 6 to 8 months following your last treatment

My weight loss program is a succession of 6 - 8 treatments spaced over a three to five week period. The program that I offer works along the same principle as acupuncture but of course I don't use needles so there is no piercing of the skin.  I use a low level laser (also called a cold or therapeutic laser) to stimulate the acupuncture points rather than piercing the skin with needles.  The laser that I use is a medical laser, not a surgical laser so there is no heat or pain.  I apply the laser to various points on the body (meridian points) and ears (auricular points).  This helps to stimulate your own body's abilities for controlled eating and weight loss. 

The areas of the body that I work on are the ears, arms, wrist, hand,  leg, ankle, and feet.  There is no discomfort and no disrobing.  I just ask that you wear loose fitting slacks or shorts so that I can have access to the knee area and also loose fitting or short sleeves so that I can have access to the upper arm area. 

The stimulation of certain points helps me to reduce your appetite usually about 30% - 50%.  I also help to stimulate your metabolism and get that working better for you.  I also do points to help take away the cravings for foods like sugar, chocolate, breads, etc., the things you shouldn't be eating while trying to lose weight. 

By doing these points, I balance your bodies energy or CHI so that you won't eat out of emotions but only when you are really hungry.  I will also ask that you try to do some form of exercise and of course eat properly.  If you follow a diet or exercise program the laser with enhance or amplify your results. 

Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you.
