Nutritional counseling can be one of the most effective treatments for weight loss. At Active Chiropractic in Saco, ME we offer counseling to help you eat healthily and work toward your ideal weight — and weight is not the only thing it helps with, since counseling can improve your overall health as well.

What Is Nutritional Counseling?

Nutritional counseling is a type of therapy focused on helping people make healthier choices about their diet and eating habits. It can be done one-on-one or in a group setting, and it involves education about nutrition, developing healthy eating habits, and changing unhealthy behaviors.

Why It Matters

There are several reasons nutritional counseling is worth the time:

  • It can help people lose weight in a healthy way
  • It can improve overall health by reducing the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, stroke and diabetes
  • It can help people manage conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol and osteoporosis

How Counseling Works Here

  1. A plan built around you

    If you are interested in losing weight, counseling starts with a healthy eating plan that fits your individual needs rather than a standard diet sheet.

  2. Changes to what you eat

    That plan may include eating more fruits and vegetables and reducing your intake of processed foods, so you can reach your weight loss goals.

  3. Habits, not just menus

    Counseling covers education about nutrition, developing healthy eating habits and changing the behaviors working against you.

  4. Support from the rest of your care

    We can advise on lifestyle changes to help you keep the weight off, and pair counseling with the other services we offer.

How Our Chiropractic Care Supports It

At Active Chiropractic we can recommend nutritional supplement companies to help you on your way to better health. We also offer chiropractic care, contour light and massage therapy to help you reach your wellness goals — care that can reduce pain, improve range of motion and increase overall mobility.

Our massage therapy services can help relieve pain, improve circulation and increase relaxation. These act as complements to nutritional counseling: together they do more than either does alone.
