Weight Management
Naturopathy first looks to address why you have gained weight and then to correct this imbalance. For many people it is not just poor diet and lack of exercise that has got them to this point of unhealthy weight gain. Many factors including diet and lifestyle effect your metabolism. Naturopaths will assess your thyroid, hormones, stress, sleep and eating habits to enable us to make a plan for you.
At your first consultation a health analysis is done in the form of a questionaire to highlight which aspects of you health, genetics, diet and lifestyle are out of balance. We then use our in house screening such as food intolerance testing, NES scan, or pathology testing to see if hormones, thyroid, nutrition or inflammation are to blame. In addition to teaching you how to eat to achieve fat loss, your weight-loss specialist will teach you how to change your lifestyle and your “mind-set” and relationship food. You will learn how to eat for wellness, change habits and achieve a healthy weight for life!
