Health Coaching
SET GOALS・GET RESULTS
Health Coach programs are vital in helping our patients meet their health & wellness goals.
The role of Health Coaching in Integrative and Functional medicine continues to grow, and for good reason! Our treatment plans are comprehensive (way beyond a prescription for your symptom) and often involve customized diet and lifestyle recommendations, specific schedules for nutritional supplements, targeted gut healing protocols, and more. Working with a Health Coach allows you to:
Have a better understanding of the various aspects of your doctor’s plan of care.
Set reasonable goals, priorities, and action items.
Receive weekly one-on-one support and accountability through secure video visits.
Acquire tools to identify and overcome your roadblocks.
Stretch your healthcare dollars further as a more affordable alternative to multiple doctor’s visits.
Is Health Coaching for me?
A health coach is a supportive guide who helps clients set and achieve a variety of health goals, such as:
Weight loss & Healthy Eating
Lifestyle & Habit Change
Improved Energy
Better Sleep
Stress Management
Improved Gut Health
Blood Sugar Balance
Discover the small changes you can make to improve your physical and mental health.
Research has shown that health coaching can contribute to clinically relevant improvements in multiple biomarker risk factors - including body mass index, blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar, and physical fitness.
Your 12-week Health Coach Program
Your 12-week Health Coach program will utilize weekly one-on-one coaching via secure video visits from the comfort of your home. Regardless of your goals, all participants can expect to receive:
Personalized Diet Plans
Recipes & Resources
Targeted Nutritional Supplement Recommendations
Weekly Progress Tracking & Accountability
Specialized programs may also utilize continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), gut microbiome cleansing, and/or specific support for metabolic detoxification.
