Purpose.
A patient-assessor-blinded, randomized, sham-controlled crossover trial was performed to investigate the effectiveness of laser acupuncture on anthropometric measurements and appetite sensation in obese subjects.
Methods.
Fifty-two obese subjects were randomly assigned to either the laser acupuncture group or the sham laser acupuncture group.
Subjects within each group received the relevant treatment three times a week for 8 weeks.
After a two-week washout period, the subjects then received the treatment of the opposite group for another 8 weeks.
BMI, body fat percentage, waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), waist circumference, hip circumference, and appetite sensations were measured before and after 8 weeks of treatment.
Results.
BMI, body fat percentage, WHR, waist circumference, and hip circumference decreased significantly (p<0.05) in the laser acupuncture group compared to baseline but there was no decrease in those variables in the sham laser acupuncture group.
Laser acupuncture significantly improved scores on the fullness, hunger, satiety, desire to eat, and overall well-being relative to the baseline (p<0.05).
Conclusions.
Laser acupuncture is well tolerated and improves anthropometric measurements and appetite sensations in obese subjects.
