Lifestyle Medicine
Lifestyle Medicine is about preventing, managing and even reversing lifestyle related diseases which accounts for about 80% of longterm disease. It is rooted solidly in science and is a mainstream approach to health.
If you are looking for help and advice on evaluating and reassessing your healthy lifestyle we can work together to plan for protecting your health. This approach is not only to treat problems, but to develop a lifestyle that reduces the risk of illness and disease, enabling you to be fit for life and work.
There is a focus on the fundamentals of your health; including nutrition, activity and emotional wellbeing. I will work with you to build a very personalised approach, with honesty and integrity and to find the perfect balance for a healthier lifestyle.
By all means bring along any test results and details of medical interventions if you have had any. This provides valuable information to inform your lifestyle choices and to set realistic goals which matter to you. With a few lifestyle changes, you can make a big impact on your physical and mental wellbeing, resulting in a longer and healthier life.
We can agree on the tools for healthier living, with the understanding you need to make smart choices in your lifestyle.
Whether you’re fit and well, or you suffer from a condition or disease, let’s find you a long-term approach for a longer-term life.
