Lifestyle Medicine is a specialty field that utilises therapeutic lifestyle interventions to treat chronic
conditions, prevent lifestyle-related diseases, and optimise health and human flourishing.
Lifestyle Medicine Physicians work with patients to understand their context, beliefs, challenges and
values to derive patient-specific lifestyle goals to prevent, treat and in some cases, reverse chronic
disease.
It uses evidence-based therapies that support current treatment guidelines and importantly, it is a
multi-disciplinary field, so Lifestyle Medicine practitioners work with allied health colleagues and other
medical specialists to enable holistic care.
