Lifestyle as medicine
Prevention is better than cure. Bridging health promotion and clinical practice to improve health and wellbeing.
Lifestyle medicine is a relatively new area which seeks to educate and empower people with the information and tools they need to protect their health and prevent, manage and reverse chronic disease states.
Our specialist team support you to adopt and sustain a healthy lifestyle, reduce stress, get better sleep and enjoy more energy. Some of the ways we do this include:
- Expert team of qualified lifestyle medicine practitioners
- Psychological therapies and health coaching
- Health education and nutritional support
- Precision medicine approach and advanced diagnostics
- Integrated service approach so you can access our range of holistic services designed to support your wellness journey, under one roof.
Lifestyle medicine is evidence-based and supports comprehensive lifestyle changes to prevent, treat and reverse the progression of chronic disease by addressing the underlying cause.
In contrast to the conventional medical system which is disease-based towards symptom suppression, lifestyle medicine looks for the underlying cause and addresses lifestyle choices and behaviours that can be changed.
Working alongside you, we provide education, guidelines, recommendations, coaching and prescriptions that address the following key contributors to health:
- Diet and nutrition
- Exercise and activity
- Stress management
- Sleep quantity and quality
- Smoking and alcohol use
- Social relationships and sense of purpose
- Environmental exposure
Our Lifestyle medicine clinic can help you understand the root cause of your illness, take control of your genetic loading and embrace a healthy diet to optimise your health.
- Promotes self-healing through healthy lifestyle choices
- Educates, guides and supports positive behaviour changes
- Treats the underlying, lifestyle-related causes of disease
- Emphasises evidence-based optimal nutrition, stress management, sleep and physical activity
- Encourages active person-led participation
- Uses medications as a supplement to therapeutic lifestyle changes
We invite you to talk to our empathetic team who sensitively work with you so you can add years to your life and life to your years. Your confidence will grow as you are empowered to learn and understand how to change your behaviour so your body can protect and heal itself.
You can self-refer to this clinic, meaning you don’t need a referral from a GP or other healthcare provider before you book.
