Transform Your Biology, Not Just Your Willpower

This isn't another fad diet. Dragonfly Wellness Center's Gaining Health program is a data-driven, functional medicine approach that targets the root causes of weight gain: blood sugar, hormones, sleep, stress, gut health, and movement.

What Makes This Different?

Real-Time Data with CGM Use a continuous glucose monitor for 1 month to see how each meal, workout, and stress or affects your blood sugar, cravings, and energy.

Comprehensive Lab Work Initial functional assessment and lab testing (valued at $800) ensures your plan is tailored to YOUR unique physiology.

Nervous System Support

  • BrainTap app access (1 month) to retrain stress patterns and mindset

  • Acupuncture ear seeds for stress relief, motivation, and emotional balance (valued at $400)

Weekly Accountability 12 weeks of group coaching sessions (valued at $1,200) for education, support, and practical guidance.

Detoxification & Recovery

  • Weekly Full Spectrum Sauna Sessions (valued at $240)

  • Optional Red Light Therapy at preferred pricing

Individual Functional Medicine Appointments Functional medicine uncovers what's really blocking your progress, hormones, gut health, inflammation, stress, toxins, so you're not just white-knuckling through another diet.

You get a 1-hour consult (valued at $400) where we review your labs and build your personalized plan, plus up to 4 follow-up sessions to track and adjust as you go. We're fixing your biology, not just your willpower.

What's Included?

 ✓ Comprehensive labwork & functional assessment
✓ 1 month CGM use with data review
✓ 1 month BrainTap app access
✓ Acupuncture ear seeds
✓ 12 weekly group coaching sessions
✓ 12 weekly sauna sessions

Total Value: Over $2,400 | Your Investment: $1,800

The Approach: Real Food, Real Results

  • High protein for satiety and muscle preservation

  • Healthy fats for hormone balance

  • Complex carbs customized to your needs

  • No meal replacements – learn to eat real food

  • Flexible framework adapted to your preferences and culture

Limited Spots Available

This introductory round is intentionally small to ensure high-touch support. Once full, enrollment closes and pricing increases.

  • 12 weeks of comprehensive support, including 1 month of CGM use, full lab work, and weekly coaching throughout.

  • Most people feel MORE satisfied because the plan emphasizes protein, fiber, and healthy fats—which are more filling than processed, high-sugar foods.

  • No requirements. We'll recommend helpful options based on your preferences and lab results, but the focus is on whole foods and retraining your taste buds.

  • The program meets you where you are. Start with walking and gentle movement, then progress as appropriate. Active clients who strength train typically see better outcomes.

  • The program begins with comprehensive lab work and assessment. Participants are encouraged to review with their healthcare provider, and plans can be modified when needed.

  • Results vary based on starting weight, metabolic health, and consistency. This program focuses on safe, sustainable fat loss and metabolic healing—not rapid drops.
