Diabetes Management

Pain recovery

Changing your lifestyle is one of the best tactics for treating diabetes.  Many medical professionals recommend diet and exercise as being the first step in the treatment of type 2 diabetes.  Exercise is important because it helps reduce blood-glucose levels and makes insulin work better, helps people lose weight faster and maintain the lower weight, and can also help prevent the development of type 2 diabetes in those who are at high risk.

The Diabetes Management Program is a 24-week coaching program that focuses on gradually increasing activity and cardiovascular workouts, learning to use a balanced eating approach, as well as self-monitoring blood glucose levels. You will have the flexibility of working out on your own time without worrying about missing appointments, because each weekly coaching session is done over the phone.  You and your coach will set daily and weekly goals for you to achieve and discuss those accomplishments each week.  

You will also learn about Balanced Eating and how it can help you control your glucose levels throughout the day, keep you from highs and lows, and help you maintain a comfortable weight.

The Living Free Diabetes Program is an audio CD course that will help you understand the importance of exercise, diet and lifestyle changes that can effect your blood glucose levels. This self-management program is designed to help you work at your own pace and make the changes you feel you can, while learning more about diabetes and how to take control of it. Find out more.
