What is a Health and Wellness Coach?

Health Coaches (also called Wellness Coaches) can often be mistaken for nutritionists, fitness instructors or therapists.  While these professions all focus on people getting healthier, health coaches have a more holistic and comprehensive approach to wellness.  At IMPACT, we have built programs around the wellness wheel made up of 4 major areas:  Movement, Intake, Sleep, and Stress Management.  Our experienced and certified health coaches will work one-on-one to create long-term success.  Appointments are client-centered and used to strategize how we can make lifestyle habit changes and apply them into our real world.

Side Effects of working with one of our certified health coaches:

  • Regulating Hormones
  • Weight loss (if this is a goal of yours)
  • Improved blood work
  • Improved energy
  • Improved sleep
  • Decreased joint pain
  • Improved mood
  • Improved sex drive
  • Improved posture
  • Muscle tone
  • Skin….improved texture and elasticity

What IMPACT is NOT:

At IMPACT, we do not prescribe any medications including weight loss meds, appetite suppressants, or hormone replacement therapy. We  can support anyone taking any of those and help you optimize effectiveness.  We are not associated with any multi-level marketing company and all of our education comes from reputable Health Coaching courses including The Mayo Clinic, The Institute for Natural Resources, and the Institute for Brain Potential.  To keep our licenses up to date, we take continuing education courses.

Programs offered:

We offer several programs depending on your needs.  Health coaching is never a “one size fits all” box.  In our complimentary discovery call, your coach can discuss all of these options to find the best fit for your health journey.

WEIGHT LOSS SESSIONS:  We offer Health Improvement Plans that were written specifically for weight loss but also to ensure that you are building healthy habits, sparing muscle mass, and ensure that you are well nourished.  We offer two basic paths, one that is using all whole foods (this is our Back to Basics program) and one that incorporates using our hand-selected high quality protein supplements in addition to vegetables and protein (this is our Quick and Easy program).  When clients meet their weight loss goals, we then transition them into our Live Well program that is designed for long term success in keeping the weight off.

LIVE WELL SESSIONS: We offer session packages focussed on lifestyle habits, not weight loss.  This is especially helpful if you’ve been prescribed a medication that also should be prescribed with lifestyle habit changes.  This includes diabetes medicines, acid reflux, cholesterol, and blood pressure medications.  You can choose a single session, 6 session package, or 12 session package.
