Many chiropractors focus on a variety of holistic treatments that can benefit a patient’s overall health. They’re mostly trained to use massage and spinal manipulations in their services, but those who have a sincere interest in holistic medicine will also learn about other subjects.
Dr. Joe Leonardi is one of those chiropractors who helps his patients improve their quality of life by using several treatments and making healthy lifestyle decisions. Not only does he run his own chiropractic center near Lackawanna College in Scranton, PA, but he also teaches courses in physiology and anatomy at Luzerne County Community College.
Recently, he self-published a book entitled “Fat Then Fit Now: A Life Beyond Weight Loss.”
Dr. Leonardi used his professional experience to develop a system that can help people lose weight and keep the weight off by making smart lifestyle decisions that include healthful foods and exercise. He knows that his plan works because he developed the system while struggling with his own weight problems.
Leonardi’s book doesn’t focus on appearances. A better appearance might be the byproduct of losing weight, but improved health is the real reason to shed pounds. It’s not about looking glamorous. It’s about living life well. Those who stay fit have a better chance of living longer and enjoying the time that they have during their lives.
According to Dr. Leonardi’s book, one can stay healthy while eating all of the foods that they crave. Eating those foods in moderation and balancing them with plenty of exercise can prevent weight gain. The chiropractor addresses comfort foods in one section of his book. According to him, the phrase “comfort food” might be a bit of a misnomer because the foods often cause so much pain in the long run.
As a chiropractor, Dr. Leonardi sees lots of patients who suffer from various ailments. His commitment to holistic healing offers a perspective that can help people loss weight without dieting. Instead, they need to make lifestyle changes that promote overall health, resulting in a longer, better life.
