When we started this clinic, we had one goal: to bridge the gap between clinical expertise and genuine human connection. We know that walking into a doctor’s office can be stressful, which is why we’ve worked hard to create an environment where you feel seen, heard, and completely supported.

From the moment you call us to the moment you walk out the door, our focus is on your total well-being. Whether it’s discussing your long-term wellness goals or just being a supportive voice on the other end of the phone, we are committed to being the “different” kind of practice you’ve been looking for.

Weight loss injections can support short-term results, but understanding what happens during and after treatment is key for long-term success.

When stopping weight loss injections, appetite regulation can take several weeks to normalize. During treatment, rapid weight loss may also lead to muscle mass loss, which can affect metabolism, strength, energy levels, and skin elasticity.

That’s why a sustainable weight loss plan should focus on muscle preservation, strength training, and proper nutrition alongside medical support. Protecting muscle helps maintain metabolic health, supports energy, and improves long-term body composition results.

If you’re considering weight loss injections or planning to stop them, a personalized strategy can help you maintain healthy, lasting results.

Before adding supplements, start with the foundations your body truly needs. 

Hydration, quality sleep, regular movement, nourishing meals, and mindful breathing all work together to support energy, hormones, and overall well being. Supplements can be helpful, but they work best when the basics are already in place.

Save this as a gentle reminder to support your health from the inside out.

POV: A patient walks in right when you’re filming a reel 😅

Real life > perfect takes, and honestly, we wouldn’t have it any other way.

Because care doesn’t pause for content.
And healing always comes first.

Research suggests that impaired gastric acid and digestive enzyme activity are associated with post-meal bloating and upper GI discomfort.

Proper digestion begins in the stomach. When stomach acid or digestive enzymes are low, food isn’t broken down efficiently, leading to bloating, fullness, reflux-like symptoms, and discomfort after meals. Supporting digestive function can be a key step in improving gut comfort and nutrient absorption.

Digestive symptoms aren’t random, they’re signals. Addressing the root cause can make all the difference.

As a naturopathic doctor, Dr. Rehan focuses on daily foundations that support energy, recovery, and long-term health, especially in today’s high-stress world.

In this video, he shares the 4 supplements he personally takes every day:
• A high-quality B-complex to replenish nutrients depleted by daily stress
• Fish oil to help lower inflammation and support overall health
• Magnesium bisglycinate to relax muscles, calm the nervous system, and restore stress-depleted stores
• Creatine monohydrate to support strength, brain function, and performance as we age

These aren’t trends, they’re evidence-based tools that support the body from the inside out when used correctly and consistently.

💬 Which of these are you currently taking?

Research suggests the gut microbiome plays a key role in estrogen metabolism through what’s known as the estrobolome.

Your gut bacteria don’t just affect digestion, they help regulate how estrogen is processed, recycled, and eliminated in the body. When the estrobolome is imbalanced, it can contribute to symptoms like PMS, heavy periods, bloating, weight gain, mood changes, and hormone-related conditions.

This is why gut health is foundational for hormone balance, you can’t truly support estrogen without supporting the microbiome that regulates it.

Cortisol is a stress hormone that can disrupt other hormones in the body including sleep hormones (like melatonin), thyroid hormones, hunger and fullness hormones (ghrelin and leptin), glucose and insulin balance, and even prolactin. When cortisol stays elevated, it can strongly impact how the body stores fat, manages energy, and responds to stress.

Here are some of the strategies we often use with patients to help lower cortisol and support healthy weight balance:
• Reducing or avoiding excess caffeine
• Creating a consistent, calming bedtime routine
• Using controlled cold exposure (such as cold showers, ice baths, or cold face immersion)
• Targeted supplementation, when appropriate (such as ashwagandha, fish oil/omega-3s, and magnesium)
That said, cortisol regulation is not one-size-fits-all. Every patient’s cortisol pattern is different, and factors like gut health, lifestyle, and nervous system balance all play a role. What works well for one person may not work the same way for another.

This is why individualized testing and personalized care matter.
📩 DM us to get your cortisol tested and learn what your body actually needs.
