Weight Loss – The Healthy Way to Balance the Body

Being overweight and obesity have become one of the most common health problems in the modern world. For many, it is an ongoing struggle that includes ups and downs in weight, frustration and harm to self-confidence and health.

במרפאת Dr. Roy Gonik ND, OMD אנו מתייחסים to weight loss כתהליך עמוק של איזון הגוף, חילוף החומרים והמערכת ההורמונלית – ולא רק כ”דיאטה זמנית”. המטרה היא ליצור שינוי אמיתי ובריא.

The health dangers of being overweight

Being overweight is a risk factor for a variety of health problems, such as:

• Type 2 diabetes
• High blood pressure
• Cardiovascular diseases
• High blood lipids
• כבד שומני
• Hormonal disorders
• Joint pain and strain on the skeleton
• Chronic fatigue and low energy

Why do many diets fail?

Many people try various diets again and again and manage to lose weight only for a short time. The reason is that diets focus on calories alone and do not address the deep factors, such as:

• Hormonal imbalance
• Impaired thyroid function
• High levels of stress and cortisol
• Disturbances in sugar and insulin balance
• Problems in the digestive system and food absorption
• Nutritional deficiencies that affect metabolism

The clinic’s unique approach

At the clinic we combine several advanced fields of treatment: functional medicine, naturopathy and Chinese medicine, in order to build a personal plan tailored to each patient.

Functional medicine – understanding the cause of weight gain

As part of the process we examine the various systems in the body: hormonal balance, thyroid function, stress levels, sugar balance and digestive system function.

Personalized nutrition

One of the most important tools in the weight-loss process is personal nutrition adaptation. At the clinic we build a personalized nutrition plan that takes into account the needs, preferences and health condition of each patient.

Chinese acupuncture for weight loss

Chinese acupuncture is an effective tool that helps support the weight-loss process: reducing appetite, hormonal balance, reducing stress and improving metabolism.

What do you get from the process?

Many patients report: healthy and stable weight loss, increased energy and vitality, improvement in mood and sleep quality, and hormonal and metabolic balance.
