FAQ
General Clinic & Services
What makes Ignite different from other clinics or gyms?
Ignite Performance & Health is a concierge, expert-led health and performance clinic in Chesterfield, MO. We combine private personal training, precision nutrition coaching, and medical wellness services (like GLP-1 weight loss, testosterone therapy, and menopause support) under one roof. Unlike a typical gym or med spa, we run medical care, strength training, and nutrition coaching as one plan, with provider-led care under Medical Director oversight.
Do I need to be an athlete to join Ignite?
Not at all. We work with busy professionals, parents, retirees, and athletes alike. Every program is customized to your goals, health status, and experience. Whether you’re starting fresh or looking to reach the next level, we meet you where you are.
How do I get started?
The first step is a free consultation (in-person or virtual). We’ll review your goals, health history, and lifestyle, then design a personalized plan that fits your needs. [Schedule your free consultation today.]
Weight Loss & GLP-1 Medications
What are GLP-1 medications and how do they work?
Will I have to take GLP-1 medications forever?
No. At Ignite, we use GLP-1s as accelerators, not crutches. Our provider helps you build nutrition habits and lifestyle strategies while using the medication so that when you taper off, your results last.
Are GLP-1 medications safe?
Hormone Therapy (TRT & Menopause Relief)
What is Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)?
Our testosterone replacement therapy in Chesterfield is provider-led, under Medical Director oversight, and designed to address clinically low testosterone in men. TRT can improve energy, recovery, muscle mass, sleep quality, focus, and overall vitality.
What is Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) for women?
HRT supports women during menopause and perimenopause by addressing symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, weight changes, mood swings, brain fog, and fatigue. At Ignite, we pair hormone therapy with nutrition and private fitness coaching to promote long-term health and confidence.
Is hormone therapy safe?
Yes — when properly managed. At Ignite, all hormone therapy is overseen by our provider, under Medical Director oversight, with regular lab testing, dose adjustments, and ongoing monitoring throughout treatment.
Training & Nutrition
What does a personal training session look like?
Every session happens in our private concierge facility in Chesterfield — never a crowded gym. You’ll train one-on-one or in a small group of like-minded clients with a coach who tailors each workout to your fitness level and goals. Our focus is progressive strength, muscle preservation, and safe form.
What is nutrition coaching at Ignite?
- Meal planning guidance and real-world strategies
- A mobile app for daily food logging and coach collaboration
- Exclusive discounts through our local meal prep partner
- Guidance on sourcing nutrient-dense, real food across St. Louis
Do I have to meal prep on my own?
Not if that doesn’t fit your lifestyle. We partner with a trusted local meal-prep provider to simplify nutrition and help you stay consistent. You’ll also receive education on quick, practical options so you always feel confident about what’s on your plate.
Logistics & Compliance
Do you accept insurance?
Ignite is a cash-based clinic and does not bill insurance directly. However, we provide superbills and documentation you may submit to your HSA or FSA provider for reimbursement.
Where are you located?
Ignite Performance & Health is located at 14830 Clayton Rd, Chesterfield, MO 63017 (near Woods Mill Rd, across from the DMV). Free and convenient parking is available.
How much do programs cost?
Pricing depends on your customized plan and whether you’re focused on weight loss, hormone therapy, strength training, or the full Ignition Sequence™ program. During your consultation, we’ll review all options and help you choose the path that fits your budget and goals.
Additional Questions
Is Ignite a medical spa or a gym?
Can Ignite help with diabetes, obesity, or metabolic health?
Many clients come to Ignite while working on weight, blood sugar, or other metabolic health concerns. Our provider reviews your labs, health history, and current medications, and any medical care is coordinated with nutrition coaching and strength training. Ignite does not replace the doctor who manages your diabetes or other conditions.
