I’m writing to recommend Dennis based on my experience. I strongly believe in his ability to coach others and produce outstanding results. He helped me lose more than 45 pounds and return to an organized life and assisted me in dozens of decisions along the way as a guiding force in recovering from a” perfect storm” of problems that could have destroyed my life. He continues to help me focus and improve my situation by helping me refine and prioritize my goals, encouraging me, helping me find solutions to obstacles (real and imagined), avoiding pitfalls, and uplifting me from the natural discouragement that can occur during setbacks to goal achievement. He is a natural motivator, encourager, and problem solver.
I was fortunate to meet Dennis Tomlin in March 2020. As a wellness coach, his personal experiences and caring personality made him a perfect match to help me during my time of grief after facing Hurricane Michael, the loss of my husband following a long battle with Parkinson’s, and the usual stressors of aging. He has helped me recognize my strengths to overcome the adversities I have faced over the last few years. I have recommended Dennis to my friends, especially during this time of pandemic.

Functional medicine or holistic medicine takes a whole-system approach to healthcare, seeking to identify and address the root causes of diseases and improve one’s overall health and well-being. It has been around since the days of Aristotle and other Greek philosophers. Guided by six core principles, it values the uniqueness of each patient by blending modern Western and integrative medicine with Eastern modalities. It considers the complex web of nutrition, movement, and environment interactions. It promotes health as a positive vitality beyond simply the absence of disease. By focusing on the root cause and treating the whole system, functional medicine empowers patients to achieve optimal health and a better quality of life.
A functional medicine coach is crucial in the journey towards optimal health. Behavioral change is the most challenging undertaking humans can take on.
Once a habit is in our lives, it doesn’t die easy. A coach provides personalized guidance, leveraging their understanding of functional medicine principles to help individuals make necessary lifestyle changes.
By focusing on areas such as nutrition, exercise, sleep, and stress management, they empower individuals to take charge of their health. Coaches are adept at listening and helping patients navigate behavior change, provide tools and the emotional support needed. Using a functional medicine coach can be instrumental in achieving and maintaining long-term health and wellness.
You can expect personalized guidance toward achieving your health goals during a coaching session. By reviewing your health history, dietary habits, daily movement, and stress management strategies, I’ll assist in identifying potential barriers and help us begin co-creating a unique wellness plan.
The session may involve setting attainable short-term goals, introducing new dietary strategies, or demonstrating helpful movement strategies. Emphasis is placed on education, enabling you to understand the ‘why’ behind each step.
As your coach, I will offer ongoing support, resources, and motivation. I also bring a level of accountability that friends and family are often afraid to contribute. To ensure your success, I offer accountability but without judgment.
The length of the coaching process varies greatly, as it is highly depending on you! However, it typically involves a series of sessions over several months. Initially, clients meet weekly or bi-weekly to establish a solid foundation. As progress is made, meetings may lessen. It’s important to note that lasting change often takes time, and patience is vital.
This ongoing commitment allows sustained support adjustments to the plan to achieve long-term health and wellness goals.
