Nova's Integrative Wellness & Weight Loss Program
Nova Medical & Urgent Care Center, Inc. and The Medical Spa at Nova are pleased to offer an extensive 12-week integrative weight loss program, customized to meet the needs of each patient’s individual goals. Designed to improve health, appearance, and overall well-being, the program incorporates visits with Nova’s integrative providers including our naturopathic physician, licensed acupuncturist, registered dietitian, and personal trainer. The program begins with an initial consultation and medical assessment with one of Nova’s medical providers. Based on the patient’s blood work results, the medical provider will work with Nova’s integrative health team to design a personalized program to optimize results.
Nova’s integrative Weight Loss Program also allows the patient to add more a la carte services to the baseline program as desired. These services can include extra sessions with our licensed acupuncturist, additional visits with a personal trainer and/or the registered dietitian, cooking classes, and use of our spa’s sauna and steam shower. In addition, weekly support group meetings will be hosted by varying providers each week for participants of Nova’s integrative Weight Loss Program.

Patient Testimonials
"Nova's Integrative Wellness & Weight Loss Program was throughly effective. I feel so much better after completing the 12 week program. I am over 50 years old and needed motivation to lose weight; the program gave me incentive, especially after the inches started to leave and the pounds started to drop.
Prior to the program, I had planned for surgery on my knee, but since losing the weight, the surgery is not necessary at this time. I am happy to say that I am not in pain and can walk long distances now - Memorial Day weekend I walked 7 miles!
All of the staff involved with the program is wonderful and encouraging. Since the program, I have incorporated exercising into my life. As a result, my health has improved and I was able to discontine some of my medicines.
There will certainly be dissappointing times when you plateau with your weight loss, but the staff gives you encouragement and advice - and it really works! I have lost 3 dress sizes and it really feels great to go shopping and be able to purchase regular clothes instead of the plus size. Getting around with activities and looking and feeling good is great! I have wanted this for a long, long time. I am still dieting and exercising after the program - this is the new way of life for me. I always remember where I was, and know I do not want to go back there!" - A.H.
