Weight Loss in Algonquin

CATARA Wellness

 

We understand the challenges of shedding those extra pounds, which is why our team at CATARA Med Spa has invested significant time in creating a comprehensive program for weight loss in Algonquin. Our program prioritizes nutrition, mindset, lifestyle, and exercise to provide effective and sustainable results.  

It’s more than losing weight – with medication, that part is easy – it’s about maintaining your weight loss and helping you live a longer, healthier life. That’s why we incorporate nutritional guidance and strategies to help you during and after weight loss. If you don’t develop and practice strategies while losing weight, you have a greater chance of gaining the weight back, and we do not want that for you. 

You control the program and choose as much or as little guidance as you want based on your needs and lifestyle.

 

 

 

Weight Loss at CATARA

Health is often thought of as good or bad – the presence or absence of disease or chronic conditions.  Wellness, however, is more fluid. Wellness is a practice, an intentional, holistic approach of incorporating lifestyle practices to ensure good health. Our tailored programs combine expert guidance and research-based approaches to help you shed unwanted pounds safely and sustainably. We incorporate 4 pillars: Mindfulness, Nutrition, Exercise and Medication.

Our Program Includes:

Nutrition Coaching: At CATARA Medical Spa, we believe health and wellness are the cornerstones to living a vibrant life. With our nutrition coaching in Algonquin we will design a personalized program to help you develop long-term sustainable habits to help you achieve your weight loss goals, and improve overall health. Our personalized coaching offers private, one-on-one sessions to address your health goals.  We take your dietary preferences and lifestyle into consideration to ensure a sustainable outcome.

Exercise:  Plays a big role in sustaining a healthy lifestyle, not only in supporting a caloric deficit, but also impacting our mental health. Taking this into account, we have partnered with some great local fitness clubs to help you find the activity you enjoy.

Medication: Our primary objective is to utilize medication as a tool to help you adopt healthy habits, ensuring the sustainability of your weight loss goal. Your dedicated provider will customize the plan to cater to your individual needs, and together, you will decide on the precise duration of the program.

Wood Therapy: Wood therapy helps to reduce symptoms of constipation and to help the body eliminate toxins.

 

 

 

 

 

What is Semaglutide?

Semaglutide

An effective weight loss solution, semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. In simple terms, GLP-1 is an appetite suppressant. It works with the body to regulate appetite helping to create a caloric deficit. It also helps to slow down digestion so you feel fuller longer. It also contains vitamin B12 which can help improve energy levels, brain function, metabolism and weight loss.

What If I Don't Want To Use Semaglutide?

No problem. We can provide alternative medications and modalities to assist your weight loss process.

How Long Will I Need To Take Semaglutide?

The goal is to use medication as a tool for adopting healthy habits so you can sustain your weight loss goal. Your provider will tailor the program to meet your specific needs and together you will determine the exact duration of the medication.
