"BACK TO BASICS"
Weight Loss Program

Thoracic Park is proud to offer a unique weight loss program called “Back to Basics”. BACK TO BASICS is a unique approach to weight loss that is designed for those who hate dieting and fail to effectively manage their weight. Diets have unfortunately been a staple in our society. Everything from popcorn and grapefruit diets to no-carb fads have been used by millions to attempt to lose unwanted pounds.

Diets fail for several reasons: For starters, the rules are far too demanding and people feel punished by participating in these short-run fasting and elimination fads. Diets are also unhealthy, as they deprive the body of essential nutrients. Finally, diets fail because they fail to make a lifestyle change that participants are willing to adhere to.

Looking to avoid the pitfalls of diets, Back to Basics is a weight loss approach without dieting. You read that correctly, without dieting. To avoid yo-yo weight fluctuations, a person should aim to take off between 1 and 2 pounds a week. Back to Basics uses basic health principals to allow you to safely lose weight and make a lifestyle change that will effectively change your life long term and not for a fleeting moment.

Unlike other programs, this approach is customized to address individual needs and can be done at your own pace without judgment or non-realistic expectations.

The Secrets to Weight Loss

In a world where there are no magic bullets, weight loss comes from successfully adapting a new outlook when it comes to food. Weight loss, like it or not, has a mental component. Will power, guilt, deprivation and sabotage sometimes play a larger part in weight management than the calories we consume.

We have to learn to eat to live rather than living to eat. Back to Basics will help you establish control and give you the tools to welcome a healthier approach to weight management.

Individual guidance and support teaches you to be in control at your own pace. Acupuncture will help combat the things beyond our control such as stress, cravings and excessive hunger. The addition of moderate exercise and nutritional modification allows you to not only establish control, but also utilize it for the rest of your life.

Make this goal a molehill rather than an un-climbable mountain. Life’s challenges are simplified when we get Back to Basics.
