The term “Health Coach” is descriptive of an approach that empowers individuals by guiding or coaching people to attain their own personal health goals. While a program designed to improve health will contain certain parameters such as diet, and activity, there is no “universal” diet for everyone, no predetermined exercise protocol for all, no detoxification program to accommodate every person’s needs, and no path to optimal health that is the same for every person. The basis for coaching~for~health is that each individual that I work with is honored for their personal needs, challenges, and goals. It is through this honor that your needs are met and goals attained. Education and information will lead you to making informed choices for your health. It is empowering to see results based on your own decisions, and it is exciting to move ahead through every challenge.
The process begins with a detailed questionnaire regarding your health history and current concerns or symptoms and lifestyle situation. This information will determine if additional data may be beneficial, such as medical laboratory results, or saliva testing. Important information includes medications you are taking, and any nutritional or herbal support.
After adequate health information is gathered, it is desirable to establish the goal. Your goal may be to have more energy, to loose weight, or to reduce the risk of disease. A suggested program to achieve your goal is outlined and presented to you. Any suggested program is subject to change as mutually determined to be appropriate.
Please note that I do not diagnose or treat any disease. For any diagnosed disease, you must see a medical doctor. Any recommendations are suggestions based on current researched knowledge regarding health.
Know that I feel deeply honored to be chosen as your health coach. I take the responsibility seriously. I will provide you with as much support as I am able and I know that you will honor my presence as well.
Coaching for Your Health,
Karen
