What Services Does a Weight Loss Clinic Provide? 

When selecting a weight loss clinic, it is always a good idea to conduct some in- depth research on the services provided, such as counseling, nutrition advice, diet planning and weight loss management. Many facilities and programs exist, and one popular option for help losing weight includes the medical spa. Also known as a medspa, it provides all the relaxing amenities of a day spa along with various treatments supervised by medical personnel.

3 common services a weight loss clinic may offer 

Though there are dozens of techniques health care professionals might recommend for losing weight, three approaches are most commonly used. Many weight loss facilities may utilize these methods designed to shed pounds and keep them off. 

Weight Loss Clinic

Weight loss screening and counseling 

Before a weight loss professional can devise a treatment plan, the practitioner must gain a clear understanding of a person’s goals and current state of health. An obesity screening and assessment is used to determine a person’s body mass index, which is necessary for intervention. Once armed with a person’s BMI, the weight loss clinic can then identify weight-related problems, which may include diabetes, cardiovascular disease and hypertension. 

A person’s BMI can also tell a physician where a patient stands. For instance, a BMI of below 18.5 is considered underweight, a reading between 18.5 and 24.9 is average, between 25.0 and 29.9 is deemed overweight and over 30.0 is regarded as obese. With a clear weight status, health professionals can devise a weight management plan that accounts for risks and does not jeopardize the safety of the patient. 

Behavior modification 

For most people, losing weight requires a lifestyle change. Typically, when a health care professional suggests lifestyle changes, this refers to dietary changes and exercise. 

Changing one’s diet may seem like the easiest way to weight loss, but in actuality, it is one of the most difficult. The body and mind do not take food deprivation kindly and react by activating compulsory tools that slow metabolism and increase appetite. Not only does this make dieting even more difficult, but it also makes it virtually fruitless. According to Obesity Action, the weight loss achieved by dieting alone accounts for just 5% of total body weight. That said, people should still alter their diets to incorporate healthy foods, reduce caloric intake and improve overall body health. 

Dieting should always be paired with increased physical activity. Physical activity helps boost metabolism, increase weight loss and, best of all, maintain weight loss. As with a healthy diet, exercise can have a profound effect on overall health. 

Weight loss medication 

Medical weight loss management is an option for individuals who have tried behavioral changes and failed to achieve their weight loss goals. Currently, there are several weight loss medications on the market which the FDA has approved. However, it is essential never to take a supplement without the recommendation and supervision of a weight loss professional. 

Conclusion 

A weight loss clinic or medspa can go a long way toward helping a person realize weight loss goals. However, it is essential to conduct thorough research to find the perfect fit and mix of services.
