Gladden Hunter Chiropractic

About two-thirds of adults in the United States are overweight and almost onethird are obese, according to data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2001 to 2004. Two local doctors are taking a stand against the growing trend of obesity in America.

Gladden Hunter Chiropractic has begun a doctor-supervised weight-loss program at the HealthSource clinic in Simi Valley.

"Most diets fail because they are only addressing one side of the problem," said Leah Gladden, Doctor of Chiropractic. "They try to teach you how to eat but never really address why you eat and make poor choices."

The HealthSource Weight Loss System is unique in that it is doctor supervised. Participants receive a professional opinion as well as a coach and mentor. Each person is examined and prescribed the weightloss program designed for them, rather than the same program for everyone. The program is all natural, using no drugs or surgery.

The system uses behavioral repatterning technology, a combination of creative visualization and relaxation that is not only relaxing but helps to change bad habits.

"The mind-body connection is so important but usually overlooked in weight-loss programs," Gladden said. "Our weight-loss program combines all the necessary tools for success and long-lasting results."

Gladden Hunter Chiropractic is offering complimentary weightloss consultations in the clinic to see if people are a candidate for this program.
