This program provides an up-to-date overview of Health & Wellness Coaching (HWC), national standards and certification supported by the National Board of Medical Examiners, healthcare reimbursement, and how HWC can bring behavior change services, lifestyle medicine, and self-coaching skills to workforces.  The newly published Compendium of the HWC literature describes the HWC evidence-base, including 108 randomized controlled studies and 2 meta-analyses (diabetes and hypertension) showing positive outcomes for lifestyle-related conditions such as obesity, diabetes, arterial disease, and cancer.  Emerging approaches to the Coach-Technology partnership, which allows integration of human coaching and digital health and digital coaching, will be summarized.

The average adult spends more than half the day sitting. Approximately 3.2 million deaths a year are related to physical inactivity, the 4th leading risk factor for global mortality. Employees spending extended hours at computer workstation can develop work-related  musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) that can reduce productivity and are the most expensive form of work disability. During this practical/interactive workshop, participants will learn how to: identify and correct workstation design flaws contributing most to WMSDs,  develop exercises for enhancing posture, mobility, stability and strength, and  help workers who must sit, still be fit!
