Question 1

Can a health coach diagnose, prescribe, or treat?

Accepted Answer

Short answer, no.

A health coach can educate, inform, advise, explain, coach, or share ideas that can be incorporated into a healthy lifestyle. For example, a health coach (or personal trainer for that matter) cannot prescribe a nutrition plan to help treat a medical condition or disease. A health coach can give recipe and meal ideas that can be incorporated into an average healthy lifestyle. Contact us today to schedule your free no obligation introductory call.

Question 2

Am I going to be given a generic cookie cutter approach to my health and/or fitness?

Accepted Answer

When you go through a health coach or personal trainer at Jisel Wellness, your sessions are client-focused and are  based on the “whole person” approach to a healthy lifestyle.  While we do have fitness programs that are readily available, your coach will help you find out what will benefit you most based on your current health and fitness goals. With our personal trainer, you will be given a fitness assessment in order to find out your body's needs and strengths and a fitness routine will be recommended. Contact us today to schedule your introductory call.

Question 5

Is health coaching covered by insurance?

Accepted Answer

Currently, in most cases, health coaching is not covered by insurance. However, there are a few exceptions:

Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) or Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs): You may be able to use your HSA or FSA funds to pay for health coaching services if it's part of a prescribed treatment plan or if you have a doctor's note indicating medical necessity.
Medical Necessity: Some health insurance plans may cover health coaching if it’s prescribed to help manage certain chronic conditions, such as improving diet for managing diabetes or weight loss for cardiovascular health. Clients typically pay for health coaching directly and may later submit receipts or invoices to their insurance company for reimbursement.
Employer Benefits: Some employers offer wellness benefits that may cover health coaching sessions. Contact your employer to see if this is an option.
