What is involved in a Lifestyle Medicine consultation?

HEalth & lifestyle questionnaire  

This comprehensive health & lifestyle questionnaire will establish the basis for making lifestyle changes. It will give you an opportunity to document and reflect on your current health concerns, your health history, your social situation, your emotional health, your eating habits and patterns, movement strategies and stress management strategies.  This will all be reviewed and discussed in you initial one-on one consultation.

Lifestyle Audit

Your lifestyle audit gives you further clarification into which areas of your lifestyle you are satisfied with and those which you would like to change.  Your lifestyle audit will include work, play, eating, movement, thinking, feeling, social and relationships.  

Initial Consultation

Your initial one-on-one consultation will be completed via web video and all aspects of your questionnaire will be reviewed and discussed.  Priorities for health and lifestyle changes will be established with particular care to delve into the underlying causes of any dysfunction or imbalances.  Referral for medical diagnostics or co-ordination with current medial or allied health practitioners will always be recommended when required. An action plan will be developed with your lifestyle medicine prescription. Small achievable and sustainable changes will be recommended that suit your routines and schedule.

• exercise and movement routines,

• eating and cooking habits,
