Optimal Lifestyle Medicine is a personalized program that addresses the underlying cause of disease and empowers our patients to live their lives to the fullest. It engages both patient and practitioner in a therapeutic partnership incorporating science-based program elements – including eating, nutrition, physical activity, and stress resilience – in a way that is easy to incorporate into our daily habits. By shifting the traditional disease-centered focus of medical practice to a more patient-centered approach, Optimal Lifestyle Medicine addresses the whole person, not just an isolated set of symptoms.
