CoreāÆIVāÆTherapy in Herndon, VA, offers targeted care for insulin resistance, a condition where your bodyās cells donāt respond properly to insulināleading to elevated blood sugar, metabolic stress, and increased risk of chronic disease. Our team works with you to create a comprehensive treatment plan that supports your metabolic health, using advanced therapies and personalized support.

What Is Insulin Resistance?
Insulin resistance occurs when your bodyās cells stop responding effectively to insulin, a hormone that helps move glucose (sugar) from your bloodstream into your cells. Over time, this leads to:
- Weight gain, especially around the belly
- Constant hunger and sugar cravings
- Hormonal imbalances (like PCOS or thyroid issues)
- Fatigue, brain fog, and mood swings
- Increased risk of pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes
Insulin resistance affects millions of women and men ā often without being diagnosed. At Core iV Health & Wellness, we specialize in identifying and reversing insulin resistance through personalized, functional care.
Common Signs of Insulin Resistance
- Difficulty losing weight
- Low energy or constant fatigue
- Cravings for sugar or carbs
- High fasting blood sugar or A1C
- Irregular periods or PCOS
- Mood swings, anxiety, or irritability
- Skin tags or darkened skin around the neck

Why Does Insulin Resistance Happen?
Insulin resistance is caused by a combination of lifestyle factors and metabolic stress:
- Diets high in refined carbs and sugar
- Chronic inflammation and oxidative stress
- Nutrient deficiencies (like magnesium, chromium, B12, and vitamin D)
- Sedentary lifestyle
- Chronic stress and elevated cortisol
- Hormonal imbalances and mitochondrial dysfunction
At Core iV, we use a root-cause approach to uncover whatās really driving your metabolic dysfunction ā and help you heal from the inside out.
