What Do Health Coaches Do?

You can think of health coaching as sitting at the intersection of health information and behavior change. Health coaches have a working knowledge of diet, lifestyle, and nutrition. They understand how these contributors to health affect the body, which helps them understand and empathize with clients’ health challenges.

Coaches also have the tools and skills to help clients build new habits and make lasting changes. This is what makes health coaches unique in the healthcare industry—they are not just a source of information but a catalyst for transformation.

Taking prescription testosterone helps restore the levels of this hormone in the blood, reversing the symptoms of low testosterone. People who take it may notice improvements in alertness, sexual function, energy, mood, and overall well-being.

Modifiable Lifestyle Factors: Nutrition Exercise, and Meditation.

While prescription medications remain at the forefront in the battle against autoimmune deficiencies, researchers are identifying other treatment modalities to help improve patient's quality of life. Functional medicine offers an alternative to symptom suppression-by addressing the underlying mechanisms that cause autoimmunity, we can prevent, and in some cases reverse autoimmune diseases We can focus on many other health issues like correcting and supporting gut health, PCOS, infertility issues, chronic obesity, cardiac disease and the end result of environmental stress.

How it works.

Discover and address the root causes of your health issues.

Summary:

Step 1

Comprehensive First Appointment. 60 minute visit

Your first appointment is all about you. The practitioner will do a "deep dive" into your history, address health struggles & discuss health goals to shape your treatment approach. We will discuss your medications, environmental toxins such as alcohol or smoking, or any supplements your are taking which may be affecting your present situation. We will need to know what has worked positively for your health in the past. The provider will order diagnostic studies and or specific labs. We will likely make dietary and lifestyle recommendations at that time. A 30 minute follow up appointment will be scheduled to discuss results and treatment plan.

Step 2

Your personalized plan follow up visits

Your follow up plan will consist of discussing any new issues, discussing your lab results and recommendations to start your path to wellness. Questions regarding your condition, and labs will be addressed. Diet and lifestyle recommendations will be made. Cutting edge tools such as CGMs and sleep monitors may be recommended. The provider will make recommendations for supplements specifically for you based on your blood work. Personal goals will also be revisited.

Step 3

You are on your way to wellness 100%

The next follow up appointments will be 30-60 minutes regular appointments. We will have ongoing communication, unlimited messaging and progress tracking. We will continue to make adjustments to keep you on track and hope to help you manage stressors affecting your long term goals. We are here for your health journey. We look forward to hearing about your progress!

Measures to getting to the "root causes", lab testing & advanced diagnostics.

This is testing like you've never experienced before. We may screen for mercury exposure, mold, stool studies, and other tests designed to address a toxic gut microbiome. We have the ability to order 1,000+ lab data points per test, which is more comprehensive than any yearly blood panel anywhere else and we have access to several lab companies such as Quest, Labcorp, Access labs, Rupa Health and others to accomplish this. But we will do our best to keep costs at a minimum. We can also order diagnostics locally if necessary to accommodate your schedule. We know how frustrating it is to run from doctor to doctor , or multiple specialists to get a diagnosis. Our integrative approach aims to get to the root cause of your condition and preventing unnecessary doctors appointments.

Supplements

We will likely recommend supplements. Some may be short term to treat specific issues, and some may be long term. It is very important that you choose supplements that are third party tested, so I have partnered with Full Script which has a variety of brands. you can access the site here: www.fullscript.com

Just like any other supplement over the counter, they are not FDA approved. furthermore if you have any questions about one please message our client portal.

The real role of telemedicine at present lies in the convenience it offers to patients and practitioners by obviating the necessity for a physical visit to get medical advice or treatment. It is also cost-effective in comparison to the process of waiting to see a doctor or other healthcare provider.

Telemedicine can also help select urgent calls after a doctor’s office is closed. It is of immense value in the follow-up of patients with chronic diseases such as diabetes, cholesterol, high blood pressure. In these individuals who are not experiencing any immediate medical problem, but require help with dosage adjustments, lifestyle regimens, prescription refills, or even just access to group support, can benefit from the convenience of telemedicine. Other chronic conditions may be; hypertension, hypothyroidism, diabetes, PCOS, gout, birth control management, erectile dysfunction, ADHD/ADD, memory loss or dementia, Gerd, and arthritis.

Cancellation Policy

We all know that emergencies can happen, and I am here to help! I am asking that you, please be kind, and provide at least 48 hours notice for all cancelled appointments. I assure you my preparation for your visit will start well before this time frame. Also, when you provide this notice, I can accommodate other patients on the waiting list.

A $100-fee will be charged for late cancellations inside of 48 hours, and the full appointment fee will be charged for cancellations with less than 24-hours notice as well as for no-show visits. Regretfully, two consecutive cancellations (without proper notice), or “no shows,” will result in the patient being discharged from my practice.
