Health coaching
Whether group or individual, health coaching has a wide field of action. With the organization of the health system, as it is in the world, doctors who specialize in a specific area do not get to devote themselves in detail to each patient, especially when it is necessary to give recommendations. Doctors in the general practice office also only get to deal with some of the details. It turns out that you are by yourself. You often need clarification as to why you are undergoing a diet, what your diagnosis means, and whether there is anything you can do for yourself by correcting your diet, lifestyle, and habits…
That’s why health coaches are there – to bypass the gap between a specialist doctor and your general practitioner, to explain, guide, and give appropriate recommendations. Evidence suggests that the lack of good results in therapy often comes from patients not following the doctor’s recommendations; they do not adhere to the prescribed therapy because they are not sufficiently involved in the decision-making process about their treatment or need to understand the recommendations well. If you suffer from chronic diseases, a health coach with sufficient knowledge of medicine and coaching skills will enable you to maintain your health condition at the maximum possible level.
