I don’t have to finish that old joke do I?  In today’s society, weight loss is all about being easy.  If you can’t do it with ease, the likelihood of you following through is slim to none.  By building the proper environment, we are achieving miraculous results every day in our office.  The challenge always remains creating that proper environment for weight loss to occur.

Miracles occur when structural, chemical and energetic components of your weight issues are properly assessed and treated.  When I ask about the chemical aspect of most patients’ weight loss problems, often I hear, “well, I take a one-a-day vitamin”.  Of course, this falls right into the “it better be easy” trap.

In today’s world of extreme makeovers and prepackage food shipped to your house, where can our Chiropractic office fit into the obesity epidemic in this country?  This article is designed to give you a better understanding of what makes us different when it comes to really helping you with your weight loss.  Then you can decide if it makes sense for you to come see us and talk about it further.

Since our chiropractic training includes the structural, chemical and energetic parts of the human experience we are the perfect professional group to tackle weight loss.  In order to do this effectively, however, a systematic approach must be taken.

The Keys to Lasting Weight Loss

First, the structural component of our weight loss strategy includes classic chiropractic care and fitness coaching.  The chemical component includes diet assessment and supplementation.  The energetic component includes understanding and treating underlying conditions, such as adrenal fatigue, blood sugar problems, thyroid issues, metabolism trouble and toxicity issues.

This three sided approach is what sets us apart from other weight loss programs in the marketplace.  You don’t have to go a health club, spend thousands of dollars in supplements or have tons of sophisticated diagnostic testing, either.  All you need to do is to systematically guide yourself through your weight loss experience.

We all know, fitness is the cornerstone of a healthy lifestyle and weight loss.  But how can you exercise with your painful spinal or joint condition?  This is why we start with a chiropractic evaluation.  Once your pain is under control, creating a simple fitness program that begins with walking and progresses from there is a no-brainer and one that you will be able to enjoy.

As you continue to improve we’ll check you structurally and add strength and flexibility components when you’re ready for it.  Another part of your fitness program should be a time management system.  Once your simple time management program is in place, one of your major excuses goes away.

Diet assessment and supplementation are the next logical step.  We use a diet history form so you can write down exactly what you eat for a week.  Eat what you usually eat so we can make an honest assessment of where you’re starting from.  You will be totally shocked at what you’ll find when you do this exercise.

Next bring in all your supplements and medications you’re currently taking.  We need to assess if what you’re taking is actually helping you.  The majority of the superstore supplements are not absorbed by your body and simply become expensive urine.  Many times you’ll be taking excessive amounts of one type of vitamin and not getting enough of another important type.  If you are only taking your vitamins once a day you’re also wasting time and money.  Our bodies were never designed to be fed once a day.  If you’re taking supplements like that it won’t be effective; spread out your vitamins throughout the day and you’ll notice the difference immediately.

The reason we talk about your medication is to come to grips with exactly how much medication you’re actually taking.  Have you ever read the side effects of each one?  We will also go over the common vitamin and mineral deficiencies which occur with the many drugs I’m familiar with.  This usually has a very strong relationship with how much weight you can lose.

Then it’s time to talk about toxicity, liver and fluid problems.  I know you’re aware that too much medication can cause liver damage.  But did you know fluid buildup could be the first sign of a liver problem, even before it shows up on a blood test?  We also talk about the fact that often time excess weight isn’t so much fat, but extra fluid.  So decreasing toxicity can lead to dramatic weight loss in a short period of time.

The final part of our weight loss approach is addressing energy problems.  Almost all my weight loss patients are in adrenal fatigue.  I could ask you a very simple set of questions about adrenal health and look like I’ve been spying on you.  Adrenal problems go hand in hand with blood sugar problems.  Once we start going down the road of assessing your energy systems you’ll know we care more about what’s really going on with you than any other doctor you have ever seen before.
