Treatment Approach
At Mermaid Well, we are here to listen and guide you every step of the way through our Well Life framework:
Move Well, Think Well, Live Well.
-
We believe physical activity is the keystone habit. Once you start adding more movement into your life, it’s amazing to see other healthy habits start to emerge!
During the initial evaluation, we get a baseline of your movement, fitness, strength, and balance, and note any muscle restrictions, pain, or decreased flexibility. Next, we create a customized exercise program just for you! You’ll have access to our MedBridge platform—including an app—with pictures, videos, and educational resources.
Future treatment sessions are personalized to your needs and may include hands-on manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, functional movement training, neuromuscular re-education, cupping therapy, and more.
-
We believe not all strength is physical. Our thoughts create our realities. Focusing on more regenerative and positive emotions can increase mental clarity and peace.
During the initial evaluation, we get a baseline of your heart rate variability (HRV) and overall coherence levels using HeartMath® clinical biofeedback technology.
Future treatment sessions are personalized to your needs and may include HeartMath® training and education for less stress and greater well-being.
-
We believe your habits are your future. Making healthy lifestyle modifications invites your best self forward with the goal of adding years to life and life to years.
During the initial evaluation, we create space to clarify your values, vision, and goals. In addition, we look at your lifestyle vital signs including:
Nutrition
Physical Activity
Stress Management
Avoidance of Risky Substances
Restorative Sleep
Social Connections
Future coaching sessions are client-driven. We provide professional coaching and support for lifestyle modification, habit change and chronic disease prevention and reversal.
