What is a Health Coach?

“The primary objectives of health coaching are to educate the patient regarding self health management and to encourage patients in taking a more proactive role in staying healthy.”

–Medical Economics, Nov 2010

Have you ever received good advice that got you so excited yet you were unable to follow once you walked through your front door? Has your doctor recommended any changes that you found difficult to obtain or sustain? Have you ever wanted something in your life yet felt you couldn’t achieve it on your own?

What does a Health Coach Do?

Health Coaches are knowledgeable advisors who provide ongoing support and guidance as you set goals and make sustainable changes that improve your health and happiness.

For some people it is all about healthier dietary choices, for others it may be how to start an exercise program, for others it may be going cold turkey with sugar and some needing to recognize the stressors in their life so they can achieve stress mastery.

This is why we spend the time exploring in order to plan what works best for you.
