Health and fitness are the priceless possessions of
mankind, which in today’s fast moving times, seem more of a dream than a
reality. Automation has drastically changed the life style by making people
substantially inactive and overindulgent into other unhealthy practices too. The
result is the overwhelming emergence and accumulation of health problems -
obesity being one of them. Obesity is a condition in which there is an excess
amount of fat stored in the body. With stressful, sedentary and indulgent
lifestyles being the bane of fast paced urban life, obesity is slowly turning
into an epidemic. It is not just a superficial cosmetic flaw, but also a
dangerous health hazard. A host of diseases and disorders such as diabetes,
heart problems, arthritis, hypertension, gallstones and varicose veins are
usually associated with obesity.
Wellness Industry plays a significant
role in this context. Wellness is defined as the condition of good physical and
mental health, especially when maintained by proper diet, exercise, and habits.
For many, wellness is becoming increasingly important as it greatly impacts the
quality of life.

In India, Wellness Industry is still in its infancy
stage. Many small Centres are mushrooming independently in different pockets of
the cities providing services related to Wellness partially, which may or may
not have the governance of providing the same in an organized manner.

boast of taking care of its precious clients with a

Weight management an important component of the Wellness
Programme, in both men and women works on the scientific principle of creating a
negative calorie balance for offering weight loss to an individual through diet,
activity and behaviour modification. An in-depth knowledge of various factors
responsible for an individual's health such as medical status, age, gender,
level of energy, diet composition, physical activity, alcohol intake and smoking
habits is acquired by our trained team of specialists. Nutritional indices like
BMI, WHR and Waist circumference are used for health assessment and a regular
update with the revised WHO guidelines is followed. In addition, a comprehensive
Body Composition Analysis (BCA) makes a significant qualitative and quantitative
contribution towards a customized weight management programme.
Based on the assessment done, the Specialist analyses
the requirements and formulates, in cognizance with the individual, an
appropriate programme that is scientific and feasible to deliver the desirable
results. The programme not only helps in alleviation of the existing complaints
but also helps to provide complete well-being to the individual, as a whole.

style and behaviour along with healthy food habits is done for clients on every
visit. The regimens do not involve the use of appetite suppressants, drugs and
anorexic diets. Shape & Shine prefers the more safe and secure method of modification in
food intake and lifestyle. Many may resort to so-called weight-loss diets. The
effect of these lasts a few weeks or so, whereas its side effects can last much
longer. At Shape & Shine, you’re encouraged to eat the right kind of food. The right
proportion and quality of carbohydrates, proteins, fat, fiber, vitamins,
minerals and antioxidants is formulated, keeping in mind the usual eating
patterns and individual likes and dislikes. Different types of low calorie
recipes are suggested. As Indian diets have lot of carbohydrates, the use of
Sugar Free is advised. Shape & Shine helps in altering eating habits and making physical
activity part of the lifestyle, thereby providing long term prevention of
obesity.
In addition, at Shape & Shine, we also have specialized facilities of
improving muscle toning, skin firming and detoxifying therapies. When extra
