Let’s Transform Life(styles) Together
More than technology, Prescribe FIT incorporates the science of behavior change to lay the foundation for long-term success.
Traditional medicine—when paired with simple changes to nutrition, physical activity, and lifestyle—can have a transformative impact on patients’ overall health.
Small changes can create life-long improvements.
We believe major compromises aren’t necessary to radically improve patients’ health.
Support should meet patients where they are.
Our team forms personal connections with patients, which makes a world of difference in their progress to better health.
Progress starts with a clear and consistent plan.
Patients routinely engage in appropriate exercise, learn about eating better, and are provided with educational engagements to support healthy lifestyle changes.
What is a lifestyle health coaching program?
Lifestyle health coaching programs focus on improving the daily habits of patients—such as nutrition and physical activity—to build sustainable healthy practices that address the root causes of chronic disease. These programs are especially valuable for musculoskeletal (MSK) patients, where weight loss is a leading recommendation for improving chronic conditions.
Lifestyle health can reduce the risk of long-term health problems.
The odds of sustaining an MSK injury are 15% greater if overweight and 48% greater for Class III obesity.
Weight loss is a top recommendation by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons for mitigating osteoarthritis of the knee in patients with BMI greater than or equal to 25.
Every 1 pound of excess weight causes an additional 4 pounds of pressure on the knee joint and 10 pounds of pressure on the lower back.
A patient with obesity is more likely to experience the following complications after surgery: infection, poor wound healing, difficulty breathing, blood clots, or pulmonary embolism.
Why physicians should recommend lifestyle modification programs for patients.
Generic weight loss advice doesn’t work. In order to improve MSK conditions and outcomes of orthopedic surgery, patients and practices must focus on healthy lifestyle changes and the dedicated programs that yield real results.
Tailored lifestyle health solutions for MSK conditions.
From acute and chronic MSK conditions to pre-surgery preparation and post-surgery recovery, lifestyle health programs can make a meaningful impact on improving patient outcomes.

“Before Prescribe FIT, I was fatigued on a daily basis and really didn’t have much interest in trying to lose weight because I had failed so many times to do it. Now I am down 80lbs thanks to the education and encouragement from my health coach. She was never judgmental but instead always focused on the positive to keep me focused on the long-term goal of better health through smarter eating habits.”
