Learn About Functional Health Coaching

What is Functional Health Coaching
The term “functional'' refers to a methodology that includes the examination and consideration of the entire person and not just the isolated symptom that brought them to you. The Institute for Functional Medicine definition is a systems biology-based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease.

Functional health coaching is an experience in which physical symptoms are alleviated by root cause resolution and consists of a thorough exploration of thought life, diet, sleep, exercise and movement, relationships, childhood experience, and stress management to name a few.

HEALTH IS A FAMILY AFFAIR
The impetus of all the work I do is my passion for the well-being and vibrancy of the family unit. - Tracy Spiaggia

Family is only as happy and functional as its least healthy member. Tracy’s personal experience has really brought her to embrace that truth and craft her coaching around that.

Ideally, Tracy works with the entire family and this is most especially true when she’s working with people suffering from any type of mental health challenge.

HOW WE PROGRESS
It starts with a very in-depth exploration of the client's entire life story. This process alone can take several sessions. It's the single most important part of the work because the answers to their challenges lie within their story.

Every client takes several assessments in order to better understand themselves and why they do what they do.

Some clients participate in vision board workshops to determine what it is they actually want for their lives as well as what they value so that a program can be crafted to move them steadily towards their vision. It's an opportunity to get into the creative part of the brain to explore what that person truly values.

Throughout her coaching experience, Tracy placed a very strong emphasis on the client's thought life. The body follows the mind. The chances of the body fully healing are significantly reduced if the client obsessively anticipates failure, and experiences deep hopelessness. This is where spirituality, community, and familial support are very important.
