What is this about, and who is this for?

According to statistics from American Medical Association, 60% of all disease is caused by stress, and lifestyle factors.

This program is designed to help determine the stresses in one’s life, and to understand exactly how they impact one mentally, emotionally and physically. Using comprehensive questionnaires and tests, Kim will gather information about you and then apply fitness, food guidelines, and lifestyle management techniques that have been used successfully.

This program may help reduce the stress load on one’s body.  It helps to identify and overcome common roadblocks for lifestyle and health improvements to positively influence one’s quality of life.
