WEIGHT HEALTH AT WESTPLEX INTEGRATIVE HEALTHCARE
Metabolic Wellness Center in Lake St. Louis, MO
Your metabolism shapes how you feel, how you age, and how your body responds to change. At the Westplex Metabolic Wellness Center, we look beyond the scale to understand your body composition, lab findings, lifestyle, and goals. From there, we build a personalized plan for metabolic health, weight management, and long-term wellness, with the support and accountability to help you follow through.
Metabolic Health Is More Than a Number on the Scale
The scale can tell you what you weigh.
It can't tell you how much of that weight is muscle, how your body handles blood sugar, or why your energy crashes every afternoon.
Metabolic health is shaped by many connected factors, including muscle mass, insulin sensitivity, inflammation, hormones, thyroid function, nutrition, sleep, stress, and daily habits. When one of these is out of balance, it can affect your weight, your energy, your mood, and how you feel in your own body.
At Westplex, we take a whole-person approach to Weight Health. Our goal is not simply a smaller number. It's a stronger, healthier body and habits you can sustain for years to come.
Personalized Metabolic Health & Weight Management
There is no one-size-fits-all plan for metabolic health. Your care is built around your history, your labs, your body composition, and your goals. Depending on your needs, your plan may include:

More Than Medication
A Thoughtful Approach to GLP-1 and Tirzepatide Weight Loss
GLP-1 medications, including tirzepatide, can be a valuable tool for weight management when they're medically appropriate. At Westplex, we see medication as one part of the plan, not the whole plan.
Lasting metabolic health takes more than adjusting a dose. For patients using a GLP-1, we pair medical oversight with attention to adequate protein, muscle preservation, strength training, nutrition, sleep, and stress. Losing weight too quickly without protecting lean muscle can leave you feeling weaker, so we track body composition and adjust your plan along the way.
You don't need to take medication to be part of our Metabolic Wellness Center. We also support patients who:
Are exploring medical weight loss and want to understand their options
Prefer to improve their metabolic health without medication
Are titrating or transitioning off a GLP-1
Have regained weight after stopping medication
Want help maintaining their results long term
Wherever you're starting, the focus stays the same: building a healthier body and habits that last beyond any single treatment.
Metabolic Wellness Coaching
Meet Jen Schroer, RN, Metabolic Health Coach
Real change happens between appointments. That's why our Metabolic Wellness Center includes dedicated coaching visits with Jen Schroer, a Registered Nurse and Metabolic Health Coach personally trained by Michelle in Westplex's approach to metabolic wellness.
Metabolic Wellness visits give you focused time to talk through your progress, nutrition and protein goals, strength training, sleep, stress, and body composition. It's also a space to discuss medication response, side effects, and any barriers getting in your way, so small challenges don't become setbacks.
Jen provides education, accountability, and encouragement. She does not prescribe medications or make medical treatment decisions. Any medication changes or medical concerns are shared with and reviewed by your nurse practitioner, who continues to guide your care.
Think of coaching as another layer of support around you, not another layer between you and your provider.
The Scale Doesn't Tell the Whole Story
InBody 580 Body Composition Analysis
Two people can weigh the same and have very different metabolic health. The InBody 580 is a quick, noninvasive body composition scan that shows what your weight is made of, including skeletal muscle mass, body fat, visceral fat, and other key measurements.
This matters because the goal isn't just weight loss. It's quality weight loss: reducing fat while protecting the lean muscle that supports strength, mobility, and a healthy metabolism.
Regular InBody scans let us track changes over time and adjust your nutrition, protein, and exercise plan based on real data. Sometimes the most meaningful progress, like building muscle or reducing visceral fat, never shows up on a bathroom scale.
The Reset Room
The Metabolic Wellness Center is also home to the Reset Room, a private restorative space designed to help you slow down and recharge. Sessions may include infrared sauna, halotherapy, red light therapy, PEMF, and BrainTap, offered as a complement to your overall wellness and stress support.
