Functional Health Coaching is a full-system reset that targets the root causes of chronic pain, dysfunction, fatigue and poor recovery. We combine movement assessments, nutrition aligned to your Metabolic Diet Type, lifestyle coaching, and progressive exercise to restore function and resilience.
who this helps
People with chronic pain, recurring injuries, abdominal or pelvic dysfunction, low energy, poor sleep, or those who want a long-term, personalized approach to health - especially clients who want more than one-off treatment.

What does Functional health Coaching look like?
Step 1 - The Consultation
The first task is to understand why you are here. Clients will schedule a free consultation to discuss specific goals and dreams you have, as well as to determine what currently is stopping you from achieving them. We will also discuss your current and past medical conditions.
Step 2 - The Body Assessment
In this stage, we will identify any areas of dysfunction and define which exercise systems will work best for you. We look at the root causes of pain or dysfunction by taking you through a full postural assessment, abdominal wall function assessment and breathing assessment.
Step 3 - The Lifestyle Assessment
In this third stage, we will identify issues related to diet, sleep, stress and digestive problems – all of which are key to improving overall health and wellbeing. Additionally, we will identify your Metabolic Diet Type for your genetics.
Step 4 - Structured Functional Coaching System
Connor will design a personalized health and exercise program for you based on the findings from your assessments and your coaching will begin. The programs will be either 3, 6, or 12 month contracts, and will address your issues using the 4 Doctors System - Dr. Quiet, Dr. Diet, Dr. Happiness and Dr. Movement.
