The purpose of this service is to provide a progressive and unique employee health program aimed to prevent, treat, and/or reverse chronic illness through the promotion of healthy lifestyle behaviors (lifestyle medicine). This program strives to improve health and quality of life, reduce health risks, and contain costs associated with chronic disease.
