Wellness Specialists

The Walk-With Assistant is the perfect tool for Wellness Specialists who are working to help clients make desired lifestyle changes to best promote their health and wellbeing.

How can the Walk-With Assistant benefit my clients?

Schedule a WWA session that will:

• remind your client to complete homework assignments,
• provide homework assignment instructions to the client for easy reference, and,
• time stamp their verification each time they complete an assignment

For example, you could schedule a WWA session that lists a progressive set of relaxation exercises for the client to complete over the next month.  With each new exercise, provide a handy instructional reference for the client, and then ask them to let you know each time they complete the exercise.  You can easily set up the session to send them a reminder towards the end of the day if they haven’t yet completed their assignment.

Schedule a WWA session that tracks your client’s identified problem area at different times throughout each day between scheduled appointments.

• View the collected information prior to or during the patient’s scheduled contact. 
• Slice the information by the day, the week, the hour of the day, or other ways to easily spot patterns, identify problems, and, as the wellness plan gets on track, document progress toward lifestyle goals.

Schedule a WWA sessions that offer daily tips for better living.

• Make a game of it for the client by multiple choice questions.  Regardless of whether or not they get the answer correct, you can instruct the WWA session to follow-up with additional educational material.

For example, “Which type of breathing pattern promotes relaxation and gives a message to your entire body that things are well in the world. 

A)  Upper Chest or Thoracic Breathing

B) Pausing after inhaling but before exhaling

C) Belly or Diaphragmatic Breathing

D) Pausing after exhaling but before inhaling.

Followed by:

Belly or Diaphragmatic breathing communicates a sense of well-being, safety, and ease to your entire body.  It is also much more efficient.  Habitual belly breathing takes between 6 – 8 breaths per minute while breathing from the upper chest takes 16 – 20 breaths per minute.  Pausing during the breath cycle after inhaling or exhaling may indicate chronic feelings of anger or melancholy.
