Management of Overweight and Obesity
through Therapy and Therapeutic Exercise

What are Overweight and Obesity?

Overweight and obesity refer to excessive accumulation of body fat that negatively impacts health.

A common measurement used is the Body Mass Index (BMI):

  • BMI ≥ 25 indicates overweight
  • BMI ≥ 30 indicates obesity

These conditions are associated with chronic health problems such as heart disease, diabetes, joint pain, respiratory issues, and reduced quality of life.

we believe that true health care comes from a balance between exercise and proper nutrition. Combining both helps build strength, effectively restore the body, and boost your energy for daily life. This holistic approach supports sustainable health and well-being at every stage of life.

Exercise for Weight Loss

Exercise helps burn fat, build muscle, and improve
overall health. It is a safe and sustainable method for
weight loss when done consistently.

Nutrition for Weight Loss

A proper and balanced diet plays a crucial role in weight
loss. Choosing foods with appropriate energy levels,
reducing excess sugar and fat, and focusing on vegetables,
fruits, and quality protein helps manage weight effectively
and supports long-term health.

Q&A

Am I too overweight to exercise?

Not at all. Exercise is possible and safe for overweight individuals if you choose appropriate activities. Start with low-impact options like brisk walking, swimming, or cycling to avoid excessive joint stress, warm up and cool down, increase intensity gradually, build muscle, manage diet, and ensure enough rest. Always consult a doctor before starting to help exercise improve health, reduce chronic disease risks, and prevent injury safely and effectively.

Not at all. Light exercise clearly helps reduce fat, improve cardiovascular fitness, and control weight. Weight loss is even more effective when combined with dietary control. Starting with light activities like brisk walking, swimming, or cycling and gradually increasing intensity also lowers injury risk and ensures sustainable results. Thus, regular exercise is key to good health and the best outcomes.

Because muscle increases calorie burn even at rest, making weight loss more effective and stable, while also shaping a firm, balanced figure. Strength training or bodyweight exercises build muscle, reduce fat, and prevent muscle loss during dieting, also boosting metabolic efficiency. Combining muscle building, diet control, and aerobic exercise is the best approach for weight loss and a fit, healthy body.

Start by warming up to get your body ready. Choose activities suitable for your condition and exercise regularly — at least 30-60 minutes a day, 5 days a week. Mix cardio with strength training to boost metabolism and build muscle. Manage your diet, wear proper gear, listen to your body, and get enough rest to prevent injury and maximize safe, effective weight loss.
