GW CIM is offering an evidence-based Ayurvedic Medicine and Yoga Therapy Program for Weight Loss and Weight Maintenance. This program was developed by Dr. Jennifer Rioux, who is an Ayurvedic Doctor and certified Yoga Therapist in practice since 1999. Dr. Rioux has entitled the program Spiritual Metabolism™ to encompass the mind-body-spirit orientation which are hallmarks of the Ayurveda and Yoga Therapy paradigms.
All Ayurvedic therapies will be tailored to the individual with ongoing patient engagement to support implementation. Outcomes from a pilot study of Dr. Rioux’s protocol have been published in the peer-reviewed medical literature.
The Ayurvedic protocol, patient education and yoga therapy will be delivered via telehealth, making the program accessible to patients even internationally. Patients will have the option to participate in data collection at their discretion. Those who participate in data collection will receive a discount and data collection instruments are designed to increase adherence to the protocol, leading to potential added benefit.
