LIFESTYLE MEDICINE IN CLINICAL PRACTICE What to expect by Dr Marie Wardle
IPT West Midlands are your hosts for the next National Meeting on Friday the 8th November at the Crowne Plaza, Solihull, West Midlands. We are pleased to be offering an exciting new area in medicine and to explore howLifestyle Medicine relates to your clinical work in IPT.
Many of our clients who present with depression also have other long-term conditions. Lifestyle Medicine is a new medical discipline that integrates lifestyle practices into conventional medicine to lower the risk for chronic disease, treating lifestyle causes. It is an evidence-based approach to prevent, treat and sometimes reverse lifestyle related chronic diseases and disorders.
The NHS long-term plan is to move towards prevention rather than treatment. Where we are currently is not sustainable with the demand on services and waiting times for treatment increasing. Lifestyle Medicine looks at how modifiable behavioural changes can be sustained through techniques to prevent someone developing a disease, improve a prognosis and sometimes reverse it.
