Lifestyle and Functional Medicine
Ruach Holistic Health offers a lifestyle and functional medicine approach that focuses on understanding and addressing the underlying drivers of illness, rather than only managing symptoms. This model integrates conventional general practice with evidence-based lifestyle medicine, supporting sustainable improvement in physical, mental, and metabolic health
What to Expect
Your care is guided by a comprehensive, individual assessment.
This will include:
– Detailed review of medical history , symptoms and risk factors
– Assessment of nutrition, sleep, stress and activity patterns
– Consideration of hormonal, metabolic and inflammatory influences
– Review of environmental and lifestyle contributors to health.
We then aim to create a personalised and practical health plan, which includes:
– Nutrition and dietary strategies
– Exercise and movement prescriptions
– Sleep optimisation strategies
– Stress regulation and nervous system support techniques
– Ongoing review and adjustment based on progress

The program will include focused, practical and supportive coaching such as:
– Dietary guidance with focus on sustainable habits
– Education around metabolism, appetite regulation and energy balance
