In an era where quick remedies and conventional doctor appointments often don't provide the relief we seek, a unique blend of Precision Lab Testing and Wellness Coaching offer a different approach.
Let's talk about wellness coaching combined with precision lab testing for digestive health.
Emma's Victory Over Digestive Problems
Emma was sent to us by her college track coach. She is a division 1 athlete who could not finish workouts due to her digestive issues, which was obviously affecting her performance.
On top of that, she battled daily bloating and struggled with body image because of it. She had been to multiple doctor visits over the past 3 years for her health issues, but was told there was nothing they could do. She was frustrated and thought she would just have to live with it.
As her wellness coach, Emma and I spent 2.5 hours(!) digging through her lifestyle, nutrition, sleep patterns, sources of stress, what she had tried in the past, her food intolerances and more. We also had her do a comprehensive stool test and we identified and talked through what was going on internally.
At the end of our session, we came up with a plan together, that was actionable, fit into Emma’s lifestyle without overwhelming her, and that she could start implementing right away. Before Emma even started her supplement protocol, so only from the implementing lifestyle changes, she started finishing her workouts without any digestive disruptions almost immediately. She had been battling this for 3 years and had been to 3 different doctors.
The Wellness coach both has and takes the time to get deep into lifestyle factors that our current healthcare system simply doesn’t allow the time for. In some cases, thats okay, but in others, like Emma’s, the solution was there, it just took some patient digging.
