Join us for the Wellness and Preventive Medicine Annual Conference, April 24, 2026!
Why Attend?
Most of the chronic conditions in the United States are lifestyle driven, yet most clinicians received little formal education in lifestyle intervention during training. Many patients seek complementary medical interventions, which are also rarely discussed in conventional medicine training.
This conference aims to provide attendees with a framework to assess and support common chronic conditions using lifestyle, integrative and functional medicine approaches. Specific, evidence-based tools in each of these areas will be shared with attendees, with the goal to empower attendees to provide lifestyle intervention counseling to patients. Evidence-based discussion of complementary medicine will also help attendees understand the indication and limitation of these modalities for patient care. Specific conditions in brain health, aging, mental health, hormone balance, and culinary medicine will be discussed.
Course Objectives
By attending, you will be able to:
- Implement lifestyle recommendations to reduce dementia risk and optimize brain function.
- Recommend complementary modalities to support men and women transitioning through menopause and aging.
- Identify the impact of mental health on chronic disease and prescribe mindfulness practice tools.
- Discover culinary medicine to recommend simple nutritional considerations for longevity and chronic disease management.
