Can Health Coaching improve health and wellbeing?
It can be challenging to maintain a health lifestyle, and sometimes people need help. You may struggle with weight loss, have difficulty managing your diabetes, want to eat healthy and exercise, reduce your stress or find it hard to break unhealthy habits.
According to a research study conducted by Gordon et al, (2017), they stated that their coaching program, “It helps participants favourably modify multiple behaviours (including exercise training/physical activity, nutrition, and tobacco use)” and “It results in clinically relevant improvements in multiple biomarker risk factors (including systolic and diastolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, LDL, cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, fasting glucose, body weight, body mass index, waist circumference, and cardiorespiratory fitness) in diverse populations.”
A Health Coach can create an individualized plan to help with achieving your goals, motivate and empower, change habits and transform your life.
Health Coaching can be effective for health and wellness!
