Functional Medicine health coaches can help bridge the gap between what patients know they need to be healthy, and the intrinsic motivation they need to actually make and sustain those changes. There’s more to a healthy lifestyle than fad diets and unsustainable exercise regimens. In other words, health coaches can help make the difference between inaction and action.
Health Coach Roles
Health coaches play an important role by using Functional Medicine principles & positive psychology coaching techniques to:
- EDUCATE CLIENTS ON BEHAVIOR CHANGE
- ASSIST CLIENTS IN IMPLEMENTING THEIR PLAN OF CARE
