Slimming 101 is a new slimming boutique in Singapore. If you wondered like I did, Slimming 101 is indeed a sister company to well-known Beijing 101.
WHAT’S DIFFERENT ABOUT SLIMMING 101
I’ve always heard of TCM’s role in slimming but never seen it in practice here in Singapore. I always wanted to go to a TCM clinic and ask them about it but on hindsight, it might be better to go to a slimming centre like Slimming 101 where they both the weightloss high-tech machines and a TCM doctor that focuses on slimming.
Now I know you’re thinking, aiya, this is just another slimming centre… think again. What sets Slimming 101 apart from the many other slimming brands is that they focus on the use of TCM to help you lose weight and fat. Slimming 101 treats your weight problem from inside out.
♥ Treatments with “Qi” philosophy by a certified Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) physician
♥ No weight rebound
♥ Acupressure Body Massage
♥ TCM Diet Plan to improve body condition
♥ Latest technology slimming machine
♥ Use of botanical ingredients such as Rosemary, Lavender, etc.
It is a holistic approach to slimming. They are equipped with the latest machines for slimming and they have an in-house TCM doctor that provides acupuncture and other TCM treatments for total body weight loss too!
A TCM DOCTOR! What a surprise right? The doctor took my pulse (just like in the movies so exciting!) and somehow knew that I am not going to the toilet often enough. -.- So powerful. She also recommended for me to do acupuncture in my tummy and feet area to release toxins and help burn fat. How interesting.

MY TREATMENT THERE
At my recent trip there, I went for a hot sauna, followed by a Sea Salt Body Scrub to remove the dead skin on my body and allow for quicker fat burning. This was followed by a TCM massage which was focused on moving lymph through the body and help rid of waste in my body.
Our body’s lymphatic system is essentially like our body’s sewer system. These lymph vessels help us drain toxins in our body. This is relevant to weight-loss because if you have a lot of toxins in your body, your body will not be able to absorb nutrients or burn fat as effectively as it should.
My TCM masseuse is quite experienced. During the massage, she told me that the lymph nodes around my underarms are stuck and maybe that’s why I haven’t been able to lose more weight. She helped to press real hard on those stubborn lymph nodes. :) I think I should do this often on my own at home too.
Thereafter I was also put under a Thermal Hot Blanket wrap that made me sweat soooo much! I stood up dripping with sweat! Its like I ran 5km, LOL!!
At the end of the whole treatment, I lost 0.5Kg. :)
IN CONCLUSION…
I’ve always heard of TCM’s role in slimming but never seen it in practice here in Singapore. I always wanted to go to a TCM clinic and ask them about it but on hindsight, it might have been a better choice to go to a slimming centre like Slimming 101 where they have both the weightloss high-tech machines and a TCM doctor that focuses on slimming.
Note that acupuncture or the use of machines for burning fat is NOT a miracle cure for your weight problems. My consultant at Slimming 101 stresses that to achieve good weight loss results from the program and maintaining your weight, treatment from Slimming 101 must be combined with healthy eating habits and regular exercises. The friendly consultants there will also be there to guide you on healthier food options. :)
