Our approach to weight management is rooted in the aspects of a balanced lifestyle:

Nutrition

Nourish Yourself with Healthy Food

The foods you put in your body are a major factor in inflammation and weight gain. You’ll explore how your current diet may be affecting your health and develop a food plan that incorporates whole foods so you’re eating for a healthy weight and a happy gut.

Movement

Make a Plan to Get Moving Again

Physical activity is imperative to burn calories and maintain a healthy weight. You’ll learn about ways to incorporate more physical movement into your daily routine in order to target body fat, build muscle, and improve mobility, flexibility, and posture.

Stress Reduction

Reduce the Effect of Stress on Your Body

Stress puts your body in fight-or-flight mode, which has a direct link to weight gain. You’ll build stress management techniques that work for you in order to keep your cortisol under control and avoid stress-induced weight gain.

You’re one of a kind. Your weight management plan needs to be too.

Get personalized assessments such as a functional fitness test, a body composition analysis, specialty labs, and more. Plus, your recommendations for nutrition, movement, and stress management are tailored to your individual needs.

Receive ongoing, reliable support and encouragement throughout the program from your medical provider, dietitian, health coach, personal trainers, and program coordinator.

Stay accountable with weekly weigh-ins and one-on-one visits with your medical team.

“The whole Balanced Living team made me feel completely supported and taken care of.”

“They really met me where I was and helped me come up with creative solutions to achieve personal goals for my diet, fitness, and stress management with empathy and without any judgment.”

– Virginia Howell
