Why Health Coaching

Health coaches can help reduce the cost of health care and bring about lasting behavioural changes.

The client learns about new, healthy foods and the concept of “primary foods”: relationships, physical activity, career, and spirituality. They spend time in the health coach setting to discuss their issues and make gradual changes with client-driven wellness goals, regular support and accountability.

Corporations are beginning to hire health coaches to help employees stay healthy. Fitness clubs offer health consultations to provide a wider field of service and greater support in reaching clients’ health and life goals. Health food stores are also choosing salespeople specifically with health coach training to assist shoppers by providing opportunities for one-on-one consultation with an expert. Not only are doctors hiring more health coaches than ever before, but patients are learning that working with a health coach is one of the most effective ways to improve their health.
