Wellness is a growing area of interest for many companies. There are more and more options available to the savvy business to enhance the health and wellness of their employees. Many programs follow traditional approaches that focus on disease management and prevention. These programs (although appealing) seem to exclude an overwhelming majority of employees. Many wellness initiatives fall short in terms of employee engagement and participation. Corporate wellness should engage and appeal to an entire work force with a focus to improve the wellness of the organization as a whole. Our goal is to create SUPER EMPLOYEES!
Why Wellness?
Did you know that it can take up to 95% of organ failure to show up in traditional lab work? Due to the nature of chronic illness and current management tools, many employees receive a false sense of health. This “lack of disease” approach can potentially re-enforce poor lifestyle choices and dietary habits. Using innovative testing methods such as Functional Lab Testing and Food Intolerance Testing, employees are given much more specific instructions and lifestyle management tools to achieve wellness.
By focusing on “health” instead of disease, employees are much more engaged and also given information that helps them fine tune their health. The Living Proof Institute offers customized solutions that complement your existing program or replace it all-together. Dr Patel and staff will sit down and customize a solution for your company to meet your needs and your budget.
