A monthly support group designed to provide connection and education between our annual spring and fall series. There is a $10 check in per person, or attend all three for $25 per person.
Some 15 functional medicine specialists have written and published their recommendations to achieve a quality of life and increase human health spans by engaging in certain lifestyle behaviors.
The common features of all these plans are brought together in a simple to read and implement format… Launch Your Healthy Life.
The trained wellness coaching team of Paradise Stronger will assist our participants as they navigate through the 10 week program. They are passionate about your health and your successful transition to a healthier life!
The program design utilizes the principles of increasing a healthy life span, reducing the incidence and symptoms of chronic disease, minimizing the need for medication, and simply feeling better come from today’s functional medicine.
