SUMMARY:Spring 2026 Convention | Successful Patient Outcomes with Healthy Lifestyle Choices
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Thomas R. Ventimiglia\, DC\, FACC \nIntegrating A Wellness Consultation into Practice: Successful Patient Outcomes with Healthy Lifestyle Choices \nThe above atlas adjustment \n\nThe Wellness Consultation is a critical component of the doctor-patient encounter\nIt is an approach to the patient that spans the entire encounter\nIt address the “psychosocial” elements of the patients care\nIt facilitates the patient’s innate ability to self- heal!\n\nAlthough the doctor is trained to counsel and promote wellness during the traditional consultation by offering preventive and supportive services (e.g.\, smoking cessation\, nutritional (dietary) information\, cancer screening tests\, NMS self-management training\, and scoliosis screening)\, it is up to the individual to make lifestyle changes and personal behavior choices that lead to health and wellbeing. \n\nIn spite of the evidence that individuals make healthy choices on a daily basis\, the incidence of lifestyle diseases indicates they are not successful.\nFurthermore\, medical and governmental policy makers\, as well as\, environmental influences have made it more difficult for the patient then it needs to be (e.g.\, food deserts\, media message\, access to care\, water contamination {Flint Michigan}).\nThat said\, the question remains\, do doctors have the clinical tools necessary to facilitate the patients’ journey toward health\, wellness\, and well-being\, and how can they be integrated into the doctor-patient encounter?\n\n\n  \nAbout Thomas R. Ventimiglia\, DC\, FACC\nDr. Ventimiglia’s lectures focus on doctor-patient communication and its impact on the patient’s clinical outcome.

The overarching objective is to provide the doctor with the skills needed to promote patient empowerment that leads to improved health behavior choices.
