Wellness Centers and Naturopathic Treatment Wellness Centers provide several options to keep clients' overall personal well-being. Moreover, wellness programs are custom-designed to fit the health requirements of each individual, which enables flexible participation in one's health improvement with a support system catering to personal requirements.
According to Dr. Ferchoff, "What happens is they (business people) get back to work and then they start sliding back and all of a sudden you know a month or a year down the road they say, "Oh yeah! I was losing weight, I was doing good, I was eating good although I'm back or even worse than I was before". Where as with me they actually come in every week for a quick half hour visit and for me, being like a health coach; health facilitator helping them through the process to get the results that they want, and say that they want, as well as keeping them on track with their goals and keeping them focused."
The Manoa Natural Wellness Center offers a program specifically designed to meet individual health requirements particularly in the dietary aspect. The Ultra Light Program offers a time-based approach to personal diet.
"Through the Ultra Light Program I'm actually monitoring them and fine tuning or modifying their program specific for them," Dr. Ferchoff said. "So I go over their life, their day and figure out, okay this is what you're going to have for breakfast, this is what you're going to have for lunch and dinner and work with them through that process and if we need to change or fine tune things, we'll modify it for them to get the results that they're looking for."
The program aims to prevent the onset of illness through proper diet. But according to Dr. Ferchoff, natural treatments are also available to patients who already have certain ailments. Naturopathic treatment is a cheaper alternative to widely accepted medical practices because it requires no surgery, which could sometimes run to the hundreds of thousands.
"I had a patient come in and he had been diagnosed with heart disease. He went to the cardiologist who wanted to do a bypass. He came over to me, we put him on this program with chelation and plaque-x formula and after a couple of months he was pain free as in chest pain, blood pressure went down, cholesterol went down. He went to his cardiologist who said to him, "You know, keep doing what you're doing. I don't need to see you for a while."
