Achieving a healthy weight reduces your risk of developing chronic disease and can boost your energy levels and self-esteem. At Heron Med Spa in Alexandria, Virginia, Roy Heron, MD, and his team offer a unique approach to weight loss that teaches you how to enjoy the foods you love while maintaining long-lasting weight-loss results. Call the office or book an appointment online to learn how you can lose the undesired weight and keep it off for good with the smart, realistic “WOW” program.
The “WOW” weight-loss program at Heron Med Spa isn’t focused on pricey, prepackaged foods or unrealistic liquid meal replacements. Dr. Heron counsels and guides you to learn how to make healthy choices when grocery shopping, preparing food at home, and eating out.
He makes weight loss realistic and achievable. You won’t experience the “yo-yo” effect that occurs with so many fad diets that encourage poor nutrition, deprivation, and chemically processed supplements.
Weight loss packages at Heron Med Spa include weekly visits with the staff to weigh in and receive nutritional counseling, education, and support. The team works to help you with behavior modification that guides you toward healthy eating habits at home and when you’re out.
Some patients benefit from nonprescription appetite suppressants and biweekly vitamin B12 injections to boost your energy and metabolism. You’re provided with a customized meal plan to help you lose weight and maintain your results.
The 5-stage “WOW” program helps you detox from processed foods, lose weight, and maintain long-term results that last a lifetime. The plan allows you to go at a pace that works for you and helps prevent plateaus that can be disheartening and frustrating.
Each stage of the program is designed to cater to your individual dietary preferences and health needs. Dr. Heron recognizes that no two people are alike, so diet plans should meet your needs rather than be a one-size-fits-all approach.
Vitamin B12 provides you with added energy and increases exercise tolerance and stamina. The injections assist with weight loss by allowing you to exercise at a higher intensity and accelerating your metabolism.
Cell-Press Plus is a dietary supplement that naturally suppresses your appetite. It contains chromium, a mineral that optimizes your metabolism, and cellulose, a hydrophilic filler that absorbs water and increases feelings of fullness.
Cell-Press Plus is an all-natural alternative to prescription weight-loss medications, and it has no side effects.
In some cases, prescription weight-loss medication may be warranted. Before receiving such medications, you must undergo a physical, EKG, and comprehensive blood work.
Dr. Heron then determines if you’re a good candidate for prescription medication, especially if you haven’t had success with more natural weight-loss strategies.
