The coach approach: Challenging the conventional medical model
The traditional healthcare paradigm views the health practitioner as the expert. The expert sets the treatment goals and provides solutions.
This approach often doesn’t work. We only need to look around to see that. People are overweight, still smoke, drink too much, don’t sleep enough, are more sick and less happy.
Why? When we have more knowledge and resources than ever before?
Because changing our behaviours is hard. That’s why health coaching offers a different approach.
Health Coaching 101
Professional Health Coaches are skilled at listening to clients and diving deep to help them explore what is really important to them and how they can reach those goals in a sustainable way.
It is an empowering mode of support and a missing piece of the healthcare puzzle, the piece that enables people to gain the confidence, knowledge and tools they need to take an active part in their own health journey.
PREKURE's comprehensive and immersive training is led by a faculty of over 30 world-class clinicians, coaches, and academics. The internationally recognised university-level curriculum develops core coaching competencies essential for effective practice, complemented by up-to-date training in the very latest evidence-based science in lifestyle medicine. This means PREKURE coaches are equipped with the knowledge and skills to help people make meaningful, lasting changes in their health journey.
Over the last 5 years, we've trained over 700 professional health coaches who share our collective goal to deliver meaningful health outcomes through science-led research and evidence-based training.
Many of them were just like you - passionate about health and wellbeing, wanting more.
And now, they are using their training to make a real difference in their own lives and in the lives of others.
