Frequently Asked Questions About Health Coaching & Massage Therapy

Please know that some insurance companies offer Health and Wellness coverage and Certifed Nutritional Health Coaching as a covered benefit, I advise clients to check with their provider, and I can write your invoice accordingly. 

Most health insurance, however, does not currently cover health coaching. 

I understand this can be a substantial financial investment, but better health is worth it in the end. 

A more budget-friendly option is group health coaching and also leads to positive results. One of the great things about health coaching is that it is effectively accomplished via telephone or video chat, so patients should know that geographic limitations are not a concern. 

Complimentary 15-minute consultation to discover a great coach/client fit is vital in the coaching relationship, and my complimentary 15-minute consultation visit can help provide that insight. 

There's a ton of buzz about Health Coaches out there right now, which is probably why you're here.

I am a wellness professional whose main goal is to guide clients to reach their health and wellness goals, whether that’s sleeping better, boosting energy, weight loss, stress management, and so much more. 

I create a safe space for my clients to explore their health, facilitating behaviour and lifestyle change sustained for the long term.

Using my nutrition and coaching education, I help my clients discover which foods and lifestyle choices make them feel best. 

Most importantly, I take a holistic approach to health, focusing on food and all the other areas of life that can support and nourish your overall health, such as career, spirituality, relationships, and environment. I call these “primary foods,” and embracing this concept in my work is what sets me apart from other coaches.

I work with clients one-on-one or in group settings or alongside other healthcare professionals and corporate environments. 

I fill the void often left by doctors who don’t necessarily have time to provide nutrition and coaching guidance. 

My vision is to change the world by reversing the global healthcare crisis by reaching as many people as possible and positively transforming their lives. 

No, I am not going to make this scary or turn your world upside down. 

I lead with love, compassion and understanding for all levels of health, life and nutrition. 

My first and foremost role as a coach is to listen and love you for all that you are, where you are, right now. 

I'm not judging or pushing an opinion on you, and I'm not trying to sell you products. Instead, I help guide you, and I make small achievable recommendations. 

I'm not here to tell you everything is wrong, but what's right, what going well? So let's grow on those positive things. 

We will work through the challenges and provide a safe space for you to share. I can give tips, ideas, recommendations. 

You have the power to heal yourself. You have the answers. You can be the person you want to be, visualize that person, look like, dress like, eat, travel, activities, career and more, visualize that person you what to be. 

You got this! Let me help you become all you truly want to be. 

I provide my services both in-person at my home Fern Walk Sanctuary or by Secure Virtual Meeting. Unless we are planning a pantry clean out, shopping tour or other planned event. 

Invoices are sent via Wave for Business, a secure online portal that allows you to use most forms of online payment such as credit card or banking transfers. 

No, I am not an RMT. I am an Ayurveda Massage Practitioner and Holistic Massage Therapist. 

No, I do not accept ICBC & Other Insurance Claims or Injuries. 

The Sliding Scale pricing offers a service with multiple price points. 

These price points make the service accessible to people with different income levels. A lack of financial resources need not be a barrier to a person's ability to access healthcare and wellness service. 

Don't hesitate to contact me directly to discuss how we can determine reasonable pricing for you and my current availability to accommodate the price point.

And DM for inquiry. 

If the Client needs to cancel or reschedule the booked appointment, it must be at least 24 hours in advance; otherwise, the Client will forfeit that appointment and will not have an opportunity to reschedule it. You will be billed the total dollar amount owed for the no-show appointment. I will allow for one “snow day.” As I understand, emergencies happen.
