Have you always wanted a trusted partner to encourage you in your continued Health & Wellness journey; enabling you to become a better version of yourself? That’s where health and wellness coaching might be the right journey for you. Health and wellness coaching is a partnership between a coach and client that guides clients toward the changes they want to make.
We help you identify and kick-start some lifestyle changes to improve your overall health and wellness. As certified Functional Medicine Health Coaches, we don’t lay our own goals on you – those goals set are purely yours. Instead, our role and capability are to guide, support and motivate you in discovering your strengths and achieving your goals.
We dive deep into your health timeline with a “Functional Medicine” lens so that we can better understand the root cause of your illness. This timeline is personalised, and is centred on YOU, your story, and what makes you unique.
It places central importance on YOUR experiences and life events and what factors or triggers in your life may have contributed to your illness or condition. Your story becomes the foundation of your treatment plan, which is the map of your journey towards better health.
Health coaching is not a one-size-fits-all view of health. We consider ourselves to be “change-makers”. We do not assess, prescribe, diagnose, treat, or interpret results.
Our aim is to identify WHY illness occurs, and address those root causes to restore health and well-being.
We believe that our coaching process is successful because it enables our clients to draw on their inner strengths, develop self-knowledge and embrace self-management strategies to make sometimes challenging lifestyle changes necessary for optimal health.
The In-depth Journey session is an ongoing health and wellness coaching partnership at Avantir, with each session running about 30 to 40 minutes. As certified Functional Medicine Health Coaches, our role is to guide, support and motivate you toward the lifestyle changes you want to make. The goals are always yours, and the coach helps you turn them into practical, sustainable steps over time.
Coaching is a continuing partnership rather than a single appointment. The In-depth Journey sessions give you a trusted partner who works with you over time to build and sustain change, checking in, adjusting and keeping you accountable. Rather than handing you a fixed plan, your coach helps you discover your own strengths and motivation, which tends to make changes last.
Coaching supports the lifestyle side of wellbeing, such as habits around nutrition, movement, sleep, stress and overall balance. It is about guiding and motivating you toward goals you set, not diagnosing or managing medical conditions. If you have a specific health concern, your doctor remains the right person to see, and coaching can work alongside that care to support everyday changes.
You do. As Functional Medicine Health Coaches, we do not impose our own goals on you. Our role is to help you clarify what you want, identify what is getting in the way, and build realistic steps toward it. The coach guides, supports and keeps you accountable, but the direction and the goals are always yours.
This varies, since coaching is a journey rather than a fixed programme, and it depends on your goals and how you like to work. Many people value regular sessions over a period of weeks or months to build momentum and stay accountable. Your coach will talk through a cadence that suits you and adjust it as your goals evolve.
