Lifestyle Medicine
Lifestyle Medicine involves the therapeutic use of lifestyle-related modalities to prevent, treat and reverse chronic disease. At AM we recognize the benefits of a healthy lifestyle and want to teach our patients how to integrate nutrition, exercise, stress management, sleep and healthy relationships into their daily lives. It is not an easy task! In addition to looking and feeling better, many chronic diseases, including hypertension, heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis and many types of cancer, can be prevented by improving poor lifestyle choices. Your customized Lifestyle Medicine Program will be based on a whole food, plant-based diet, daily movement, stress management techniques, tobacco and alcohol cessation and other non-drug therapies to get you feeling your best.
