The ICCM Program is an evidence-based Lifestyle Medicine approach to implementing, managing and maintaining positive lifestyle changes that will produce a direct impact on your health and wellbeing.
Now in its 8th year, this program has been designed and developed by Internationally Certified Lifestyle Medicine Physician, Dr. Michelle Reiss. Delivered in collaboration with a team of reputable Health Care practitioners, the ICCM Program has supported hundreds of members through lifestyle change with our bio-psycho-social model of care.
What is the ICCM Program?
The I Can Change Me program is an intensive 10-week program that is medically designed to deliver the latest evidence in the key pillars of sustainable lifestyle change. The goal of the program is to educate, equip and empower members to facilitate and sustain lifestyle changes that will improve their quality of life, sense of well-being and vitality.
Specifically, the program clinically addresses the prevention and reversal of lifestyle induced Chronic Disease, such as:
Overweight & Obesity
Pre-Diabetes & Type 2 Diabetes
Fatigue, Stress, Anxiety & Depression
Heart Disease & Stroke
Inflammation & some types of Cancers
Before your ICCM Program commences, members will be required to undertake Pathology work, as well as a basic physical, nutritional, habitual and neurological assessment. These tests will form your individual baseline function of your Physical and Psycho-Social Well-being, for which your progression will be measured for the next 10 weeks.
