Meet Our Lifestyle Coach
Kea Crandall M.D., PT
Kia Ora and welcome to my page! I created my business after becoming disillusioned with the current "health"care establishment and wanting to move to actual health-care (wellness), instead of focusing on sickness/disease. I have also always considered myself an environmentalist, and found that the best thing I could do for the planet was to change what I choose to consume every day.
Because of my training, I understand the current treatment courses that are prescribed by GPs, have had years experience practicing medicine and treating disease, and yet, also have had the experience of being a patient, and have had lifestyle medicine change the course of my health.
Lifestyle medicine is for those who are interested in treating the root cause of disease, instead of symptoms (high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, inflammatory disorders, and many cancers) or for those who are wanting to avoid those things because they might be genetically at risk. In lifestyle medicine, the treatment is in behavior change, instead of medications. It's well known now that diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and many other illnesses can be reversed with lifestyle changes.
The tenets of lifestyle medicine are all within your control. The decisions you make every day in what you consume are the best way to control how your body functions...and whether disease is present or not. Isn't it worth being empowered to take your health into your own hands?
I'm not here to sell you potions, powders, pills, or an 8 wk challenge. I'm here to meet you where you are, empower you with information, and to help you create a path to health and wellness that works for you, 4life.
I believe laughter is medicine. I believe movement is medicine. I believe connection is medicine. I believe music is medicine, and that medicine is an art. I believe healthcare is a right, not a privilege, and that medicine is largely based in educating patients...I don't have magic hands, I have information, and I want to share that information with those who are interested!
