At Salus Integrative, weight loss is never just about calories or willpower. It’s about restoring balance within the body so fat loss can occur naturally, safely, and sustainably.

Our integrative approach addresses the underlying factors that commonly interfere with weight loss—such as metabolic dysfunction, insulin resistance, inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, stress physiology, sleep disruption, and gut health. By supporting the body at a systems level, we help shift you out of “survival mode” and into a state where lasting change becomes possible.

The result is more than weight loss: improved energy, clearer thinking, balanced blood sugar, better sleep, reduced cravings, and a healthier relationship with your body.

WHAT IS INTEGRATIVE WEIGHT LOSS, HOW DOES IT WORK?

Integrative weight loss combines evidence-based medical care with lifestyle, nutrition, and metabolic support to address the root causes of weight gain.

Rather than focusing solely on restriction, we evaluate how your body processes food, stores fat, responds to stress, regulates blood sugar, and produces energy. From there, we design a personalized plan that supports fat loss while preserving muscle mass, protecting your metabolism, and improving overall health.

This approach helps prevent the cycle of crash dieting, rebound weight gain, and metabolic slowdown.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

INTEGRATIVE WEIGHT LOSS

  • Traditional dieting often focuses only on calorie restriction and short-term results. Our integrative approach looks at the full picture—metabolism, blood sugar regulation, inflammation, gut health, stress, sleep, and lifestyle factors that influence how your body stores and burns fat. Instead of forcing weight loss, we support your body’s natural ability to release weight in a healthy, sustainable way.

  • Many patients begin noticing improvements in energy, appetite control, and cravings within the first 1–2 weeks. Visible weight loss typically follows within the first few weeks, depending on your starting point, consistency, and individual metabolism. Our focus is steady, sustainable progress rather than rapid loss that can compromise long-term success.

  • Lab testing is required for everyone, and is recommended to identify hidden barriers to weight loss such as blood sugar imbalances, inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, or metabolic dysfunction. Your provider will determine what testing, is appropriate based on your history and goals.

  • Yes, when clinically appropriate. Medical weight loss options, including GLP-1 medications and other supportive therapies, may be discussed during your visit. These are always used as part of a comprehensive plan that includes nutrition, lifestyle, and metabolic support—not as a standalone solution.

  • Plateaus are common and expected during any weight loss journey. If this happens, we reassess your plan, review contributing factors such as nutrition, stress, sleep, and metabolism, and make strategic adjustments to help your body continue progressing safely and effectively.

  • Yes. Our program is medically supervised and designed to protect your metabolism, preserve lean muscle mass, and support long-term health. We emphasize sustainable habits and gradual fat loss rather than extreme or restrictive approaches.

  • Follow-up visits are typically scheduled every 4–6 weeks, depending on your plan and progress. These visits allow us to monitor results, provide guidance, adjust your protocol, and ensure continued safety and effectiveness.

  • Absolutely. Many patients choose to enhance their results by combining weight loss care with IV therapy, nutrient support, gut health services, or stress recovery treatments. Your provider can help determine which services may best complement your goals.
