What is the process that a health coach should follow?

It is understandable that when starting out you do not know what to do or that you do not know the process that a health coach should follow. On many occasions, not knowing this ends up leading the coach to abandon his work. This is something that can be avoided with simple information. You should keep in mind that in this post we will not explain how to attract more customers through social networks or marketing. Today we will talk about what steps to follow to treat one of your clients. Let’s start with how the coach/patient relationship should be carried out from this point:

• Collect information regarding your client.
• Areas of health in your client, which you will dedicate more concentration to. This may include; reduction of cravings, food transitions, weight loss in general.
• Agree on the payment that will be made for the advice and how you will be paid
• Establish days and times when you can visit your client to follow up on their advice.
• Once you have the first step covered, now you can design a plan for your client. You can write down the recommendations you plan to give. It is important that you give these recommendations an order so you can cover your client’s areas of need one by one and give them an explanation.
• Keep in touch with your client, by phone or if you have the option of contacting them via Skype, it will be better.
• In the calls you will ask him how his process is going, how he feels, what reactions he has presented, etc. It is also important to know what your short-term goals are. Whether it’s following a week of healthy eating or running a certain distance in the morning.
• Between each session you have with your client, make sure your client is practicing the suggestions you have presented. We know that you will not be following them all the time, but you can send information to their emails regarding healthy habits and good nutrition. The truth is, the process is not complicated at all. What is a task is monitoring the client. But once you get the information about your habits and goals to follow, it will be much easier to carry out. Make sure you create a good contact with your client. Creating that bond of trust is very important, as it will make it easier for you to serve them.
