weight management & GLP-1 program
Clinician-guided GLP-1 therapy combined with movement, nutrition, stress support, and body-positive care.
GLP-1 medications help regulate appetite, blood sugar, and the hunger signals coming from your brain. For a lot of people, they finally give the body the support that diet and exercise alone couldn’t. The medication is only one piece.
Dr. Lindsay Johnson monitors you from start to finish with regular check-ins, labs, and dose adjustments. She pays attention to your overall health, not just the scale.
Dr. Johnson works closely with our rehab specialist to create an exercise plan that starts where you are and progresses safely. Working with our rehab specialist, Dr. Ryan, you can learn strength training and weight-bearing activities to help you hold onto muscle and keep your metabolism healthy. You’ll also receive dietary counseling with an emphasis on protein intake and timing, which helps preserve lean muscle mass during weight loss.
We want you to feel comfortable from the moment you walk in. The furniture in our waiting room and naturopathic treatment room supports up to 550 lbs, so you can feel at ease and focus on your health.
We’re here to help you take the next supported step, whatever that looks like for you.
