What our weight loss clients have to say...

“Thanks to La Boussole, I’ve lost 40 lbs! When I started, I didn’t realize muscle loss could be an issue with GLP-1s, but the team educated and guided me to lose weight healthily while maintaining my strength. What I appreciate most is their integrity. They actually encourage you to stay on a lower dose if it’s working, rather than increasing it just to make more money. It’s not just about the medicine—every month, an RN or MD sits down with me to review my progress and build a personalized plan. They coach me on everything from protein intake and gut health to mental well-being and stress relief. Their whole-person approach is what truly makes the difference. With added support like metabolic injections and energy IV drips, I feel fully supported. Walking into La Boussole feels like being greeted by family—I wouldn’t go anywhere else.”
Eva M.

“La Boussole has been absolutely incredible throughout my weight-loss journey. I meet with RN Stacy, and her knowledge, encouragement, and genuine care have made every step feel achievable. She takes the time to listen, guide, and tailor each visit to what I truly need. Her positivity is contagious, and she creates an environment where success feels within reach. I’m genuinely grateful for the dedication and support she provides at the spa.”

At La Boussole, we believe successful weight loss isn’t just about the number on the scale—it’s about how you feel, how your body functions, and how you maintain your results for life.

What You Can Expect

Every client receives:

  • One-on-one monthly consultations with an RN, NP, or MD
  • Personalized plans tailored to your body, goals, and progress
  • Ongoing education and coaching for sustainable lifestyle change

From nutrition and protein intake to gut health, stress management, and metabolic support, we guide you through every aspect of your journey.

Advanced Medical Support with GLP-1 Weight Loss Injections

Our program incorporates GLP-1 weight loss injections, a groundbreaking advancement in medical weight management.

These medications:

  • Mimic natural hormones that regulate appetite and blood sugar
  • Support reduced cravings and improved metabolic function
  • Help create a more controlled, sustainable weight loss experience

Physician-Directed Care with Advanced Obesity Medicine Expertise

The Compass Wellness Program is led by Medical Director Dr. Altagrace Hanley, a triple board-certified physician with advanced training in obesity medicine.

Her certification through the American Board of Obesity Medicine (ABOM) reflects a deep understanding of weight management as a complex, multifaceted condition—not simply a matter of willpower.

Her approach focuses on four essential pillars:

  • Nutrition
  • Medical Management
  • Physical Activity
  • Behavioral Modification

This evidence-based foundation ensures every client receives comprehensive, medically sound care designed for lasting success.

Precision Tracking with Advanced Body Composition Analysis

Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation, including:

  • Health history review
  • Goal setting
  • Baseline lab work

We also utilize the InBody 380 Body Composition Analyzer, allowing us to track:

  • Body fat percentage
  • Muscle mass
  • Hydration levels
  • Overall body composition

This means we’re not just tracking weight—we’re ensuring you’re losing fat, preserving muscle, and improving your overall health.

Ongoing Support Every Step of the Way

At La Boussole, you’re never navigating your journey alone.

Your program includes:
✔ Customized nutritional planning
✔ Regular in-person check-ins
✔ Medication monitoring and titration
✔ Continuous progress tracking

Every element is designed to help you achieve real, lasting results—not temporary fixes.

Additional Wellness Enhancements

To further support your results, Compass Wellness includes:

  • Monthly IM Vitamin Boosters to enhance overall wellness
  • Quench IV Infusion Therapy for hydration, energy, and recovery
  • Metabolic support options tailored to your needs

These therapies help optimize how you feel, function, and perform throughout your weight loss journey.
