inStriv History
In June of 2013, Dr. Jamie Leighow and his wife, JoAnise, saw a need in their local community for a natural and sustainable weight loss program in the hopes of helping those who suffered with medical issues because of their weight. A weight loss division was established within Twin Hills Health Center with a vision to provide the right tools, nutritional guidance, and clinical support to assist our clients in reaching their optimal health and wellness goals. From those humble beginnings, we continued to grow and thrive, serving even more of North Central PA by opening a second satellite office in 2018 and separating weight loss into its own entity, Twin Hills Weight Loss, LLC.
In 2020, as the face of healthcare changed and treating clients virtually became a necessary reality, Twin Hills Weight Loss would not only rise to the challenge of continuing to serve our existing clientele but would branch out into its own growing, thriving entity. Our weight loss division expanded from a local resource to a national weight loss solution servicing a whole new family of clients across the country. inStriv was born. Our goal and passion remain the same – to help our clients reach their best health, attain their ultimate wellness and thrive in every area of their lives.
The inStriv Difference
Research shows a higher percentage of body fat greatly increases a person’s risk of developing many diseases – including heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, cancer, and many more.
But with so many opinions regarding the best way to lose weight and reduce the risks of these diseases, people can get confused on what truly works to lose weight in a healthy and sustainable manner.
The truth is, not all weight loss programs are created equal. Most plans fail to address anti inflammatory principals. That’s why we created inStriv – a program focused on achieving lifelong results with the powerful combination of physical, physiological, and psychological elements.
inStriv is a total mind and body wellness approach to weight loss.
At inStriv, our specialized team creates customized meal plans for each individual client built upon a solid nutritional foundation. Our menus include a variety of regular healthy foods you can purchase at any local grocery store. And because we are the furthest thing from those one-size-fits-all types of weight loss programs, each plan is uniquely designed to adapt to your individual dietary needs or health concerns.
But we don’t stop there……
At inStriv, we understand that achieving successful weight loss encompasses so much more than just changing what you eat!
Our team of inStriv Specialists will help identify physiological signs that your body may be fighting to store fat instead of burning it. By identifying any underlying issues with your body chemistry, including factors such as – pH level, Hormonal imbalances, Leptin Resistance, and Chronic Inflammation, we can design a customized plan that will help to restore a more natural, healthy body chemistry, while increasing your metabolism!
And because inStriv is a natural program, we accomplish this without the use of any medications, injections, or stimulants!
