Voted the Best Weight Loss Program/Center in Joplin and Southwest Missouri, the Compass Wellness Weight Management Program at La Boussole Medical Spa & Wellness Center is a personalized journey designed to provide you with a comprehensive health and wellness package to support your weight loss goals. Our highly skilled nursing staff is dedicated to equipping you with the resources necessary to achieve your desired outcomes and guide you toward a healthier lifestyle.
Your journey begins with an initial appointment where we establish your health history, goals, and program expectations, along with conducting baseline bloodwork and follow-up testing as needed. La Boussole is with you every step of the way, offering individual counseling, support, and customized nutritional planning led by a Nurse Practitioner. We also provide thorough results tracking and in-person check-in appointments to monitor various indicators such as weight, body fat percentage, BMI, hydration status, and medication titrations, all aimed at helping you reach your wellness and weight goals.
Our weight loss program integrates Semaglutide or Tirzepatide injections, groundbreaking medications initially designed for individuals dealing with chronic weight management issues and as insulin boosters for those managing diabetes. Both Semaglutide and Tirzepatide function as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, mirroring the effects of GLP-1, a hormone crucial for regulating blood sugar levels and appetite. Tirzepatide additionally targets the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor, another hormone involved in blood sugar regulation.
La Boussole's Compass Wellness Weight Management Program also offers monthly IM Vitamin Boosters to help you feel your best, along with Quench IV Infusion Therapy to support your hydration needs.
