Members of a growing field, health and wellness consultants strive to help their clients meet various physical and health-related goals. In general, consultants focus on areas such as nutrition, fitness, and stress management in an effort to encourage clients to live healthier lives. Testing is often involved in order to determine an individual's food sensitivities (foods that cause inflammation in the body), intestinal and immune imbalances, and adrenal stress response and function, to name a few. The primary objective of health and wellness consulting is to encourage lasting changes in a client’s lifestyle rather than generating immediate, more temporary effects.
Unlike other health professionals, health and wellness consultants act as wellness partners and coaches throughout their clients’ journeys. They work directly with each client to determine where that individual would like to go in terms of health and what path he or she should take to reach that end. While they typically do not provide medical services they may be willing to collaborate with licensed medical professionals and primary care provides where appropriate.
