A Whole-Body, Science-Based Approach to Sustainable Weight Loss and Better Health

The 7 Systems Weight Management Program at offers a comprehensive, functional approach to weight loss and metabolic health. This program evaluates seven key body systems that influence weight, energy, hormones, digestion, and long-term wellness. By understanding how these systems work together, we help patients identify root causes of weight challenges and create a sustainable plan that supports lasting results. This is not a quick-fix diet. It’s a guided pathway to better health, improved energy, and whole-body transformation.

What the 7 Systems Approach Helps Address

How the 7 Systems Weight Management Program Works

This system evaluates seven core areas of health that directly influence weight and metabolic function: Nutrition, Hormones, Detoxification, Digestion, Brain & Mood, Immune System, and Structural Balance.

During your evaluation, your chiropractor will review your lifestyle, symptoms, history, and metabolic patterns to determine which systems are under stress. From there, you’ll receive a personalized plan that may include nutrition guidance, supplement support, detox strategies, gut healing protocols, stress regulation tools, and structural chiropractic care when appropriate.

The goal is to help your body function optimally so weight loss becomes more natural, energy becomes more consistent, and your overall sense of well-being improves. The program is supportive, data-driven, and tailored uniquely to each patient.

Structural System

Structural system (includes your cells, muscles, bones, organs, and tissues): Keep your body healthy by eating whole, real foods, moving daily, limiting stress, increasing enjoyment, and incorporating play and relaxation.

Digestive System

Focus on removing the things that damage your gut, like ultra-processed, sugary and starchy foods, damaged fats, environmental toxins, unnecessary medications, stress, etc. and adding in the things that heal your gut, like prebiotic and fiber-rich foods (non-starchy veggies and whole fruits), fermented foods, probiotics, and L-glutamine.

Delivery System

Transport system (includes your lymph and vascular systems): Keep your transport system moving by exercising often, sweating frequently, getting a massage, dry brushing, and adding support like CoQ10, high-quality fish oil, and L-carnitine.

 

Energy System

Support your mitochondria (the energy-creating organelles in your cells) by eating whole, real foods, loading your plate with colorful vegetables, and eating anti-inflammatory foods, healthy fats, and MCT oil.

 

Immune and Inflammatory System

Create a healthy inflammation and immune response by limiting the things that cause chronic inflammation, like dairy, sugar, and gluten, chronic stress, toxins, and food sensitivities/allergies and adding in the things that support immune health, like colorful organic vegetables, quality protein, plenty of healthy fats, wild-caught/low-mercury fish (salmon, sardines, anchovies, etc.), high-quality fish oil, vitamin C, and vitamin D.

 

Communications System

Focus on lifestyle factors like eating plenty of healthy fats, limiting stress, increasing enjoyable activities (hobbies, creative outlets, connection with friends, building relationships, etc.), limiting processed and refined foods, and adding extra support like MCT oil, magnesium, and vitamin D.

 

Detox System

Make sure your body’s ability to remove waste and toxins is supported by reducing your amount of toxic exposure through limiting plastics, BPA-lined cans, artificial chemicals, unnatural ingredients, additives, artificial fragrances, etc. Support your body’s detoxification system by drinking plenty of water, sweating often through exercise and sauna, eating cruciferous vegetables, and having consistent bowel movements.
