FAQ

General Clinic & Services

What makes Ignite different from other clinics or gyms?

Ignite Performance & Health is a concierge, physician-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 integrate science, strength, and physician oversight to help you achieve real, lasting results.

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.

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?
GLP-1 medications — sometimes referred to by brand names like Ozempic®, Wegovy®, or Mounjaro® (semaglutide and tirzepatide) — help regulate appetite, reduce cravings, and improve fullness. At Ignite, we pair these tools with strength training and nutrition coaching so you lose fat while protecting muscle and metabolism.

No. At Ignite, we use GLP-1s as accelerators, not crutches. Our physician helps you build nutrition habits and lifestyle strategies while using the medication so that when you taper off, your results last.

GLP-1 medications are FDA-approved and prescribed under direct physician supervision. Like any medication, they may have side effects. That’s why we review your medical history, labs, and possible interactions before prescribing, and we provide ongoing monitoring for your safety.

Hormone Therapy (TRT & Menopause Relief)

What is Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)?

Our testosterone replacement therapy in Chesterfield is physician-supervised and designed to restore healthy hormone balance in men. TRT can improve energy, recovery, muscle mass, sleep quality, focus, and overall vitality.

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.

Yes — when properly managed. At Ignite, all hormone therapy is overseen by a physician with regular lab testing, dose adjustments, and ongoing monitoring to keep you safe while maximizing benefits.

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.

Nutrition coaching at Ignite goes beyond calories. We build strategies around your lifestyle, health goals, and daily energy needs. You’ll get access to:
  • 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

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.

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.

Pricing depends on your customized plan and whether you’re focused on weight loss, hormone therapy, strength training, or full transformation packages. 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?
Neither. Ignite is a hybrid concierge clinic — we deliver the privacy and personal attention of a boutique gym combined with the medical expertise of a physician-led wellness practice.

Yes. Many of our clients come to Ignite to address obesity, Type 2 diabetes, and metabolic health challenges. With physician-guided care, nutrition coaching, and strength training, we help you improve biomarkers, energy levels, and long-term health outcomes.

Absolutely. In fact, most of our clients are executives, professionals, moms with school-aged kids, and recent retirees who want to reclaim their health but need a concierge program that respects their time and delivers measurable results.
