Health Coaching
 

Studies demonstrate the benefit of having a buddy when you’re trying to enact a wellness program.  With our Healthy U HealthCoaching service, we elevate that buddy system to a higher level - because you now have a buddy who happens to also be a wellness expert, and an advocate for your health.

The Healthy U program pairs you with a trained HealthCoach that is able to guide you in setting individual wellness goals, track your progress, answer questions, and motivate you to succeed.  Wellness coaching has been shown to improve success rates for those seeking to make all types of lifestyle changes including:
 

Weight loss Nutritional improvements Smoking cessation Fitness routines

Stress reduction Disease management (diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and others)

Your sessions with your coach are one-on-one, so the advice and tips provided are specific to your unique goals and information is maintained privately.  Each program starts with a personal wellness and health risk profile - a formal health risk assessment that gives you a snapshot of your current health status.

At your initial session, your HealthCoach will review the results of your profile, and then will help you establish your personal health vision, identify any potential barriers, and set your long- and short-term goals.  Since coaching is designed specifically to you, what you and your coach discuss is under your control.  Scheduled weekly phone consultations and unlimited email support from your coach will give you the encouragement you need to stay on track.

Our HealthCoaches also provide coaching services as part of every wellness program offered by the Masaya Healing & Wellness Center.

For employers seeking to enact wellness initiatives in the workplace, our Healthy U HealthCoaches help your employees make the necessary changes to improve their health – and help you better manage the overall health of your workforce.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that, annually, more than 75 percent of employer health care costs and productivity losses are related to employee lifestyle choices.  Download our Corporate HealthCoaching information sheet to see how you can lower absenteeism / presenteeism rates and increase productivity, but also to reduce stress, improve morale, and promote a higher level of well being and self-esteem among your employees.
