Health conditions associated with excess body weight require help beyond weight control alone. Targeting a rigid Body Mass Index (BMI) alone is too simple an intervention.
Health gains for the whole body and mind are more important than weight loss alone.

Personal Wellness
Not everyone has the same needs. In fact, it’s hard to find two people who benefit from the exact same approach to health! Let’s get to know each other and together we’ll build your personalised wellness plan.
Mind
Your brain is the master controller of your health and body weight. The brain’s powerful mediators are both subconscious and conscious. These neurochemical modulators influence your hunger, food choices and energy expenditure. Your mood, stress levels and sleep all contribute significantly to your weight control. For health habit change, understanding the mood, food and mind body connection is essential.
Body
Move it or lose it - Being more active is so important for health. Activity improves sleep, mental health, sense of well being and reduces cardiovascular risk. It is hard to be active in our 21st century society. Labour saving devices mean we don’t use as much energy as our ancestors. We are time poor and have been limited in getting out of the house in this post-covid era.
Food
What you eat and drink is critical to your health and weight control. The first step is to know what to eat (knowledge) and how to achieve this (behaviour). There is so much misinformation available, that it is easy to get caught up in a strategy that is not right for you as an individual.
