Weight Management

Here at CPC USA we recognize that obesity is a major epidemic currently affecting millions of Americans. And, being overweight can have serious consequences and complications, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, and certain cancers.

We know that being overweight is also a risk and will complicate myofascial pain syndromes, sleep apnea, pregnancy, gallbladder disease, and many other medical problems. The psychological toll is an even a more complicated by product that many overweight individuals face everyday.

CPC USA now offers weight-management services and obesity prevention as part of our practice. When contemplating an all weight-loss program it should include three important components.

1. Diet

Standardized diets with or without daily menus or create your own. Software is now available to create custom diets for you the patient, complete with menus that include meals and snacks.

2. Exercise

Standardized exercise testing with specific goals and plans to reach these goals is vital to your weight loss success.

3. Follow-up, support, and counseling

Every successful weight-loss program includes some form of follow up, support, and counseling to provide patients and staff a chance to track progress. We are no exception here at CPC USA we have a biweekly weigh-in and counseling with a staff member and then conduct a monthly follow-up with the doctor to monitor progress. In addition, we do offer a patient support group. After all we know the support we give our patients may be the most important component of our program.

If interested in taking advantages of our weight management services please talk to one of the CPC USA staff members on your next visit into the office or you may email us with any questions you have.

Dr. Chris  Asks some important questions of interest to Thousand Oaks residents - Chiropractor Thousand Oaks Dr. Chris Asks...

What is the purpose of pain?
Pain prompts many Thousand Oaks folks to begin chiropractic care. But pain isn't the problem! Pain is just how your body alerts you that a limit has been reached (or exceeded), that something isn't working right and that some type of change is needed. As a chiropractor, my job is finding the underlying cause and recommending the changes needed to bring your body back into balance.
Why are chiropractors wary of the germ theory?
Louis Pasteur originated the idea that germs caused disease. Yet, on his deathbed he recanted, declaring, "It's not the seed, but the soil." Meaning, it's not the germ that causes disease, but the condition of the body that allows the germ to thrive. Chiropractic care in our Thousand Oaks office is designed to bolster your resistance so germs don't see you as a good host.
