Welcome to my website. My name is Vincent and I offer you Integrative Heath Therapies and Coaching to improve your health and well-being. My journey into holistic medicine started when I studied pharmacy and very soon I realized that pieces of the puzzle were missing in western medicine. So I combined my scientific career with training in other therapies which include:
Chinese Medicine & Bioenergetics
Nutrition and Diet Therapy
Medical Acupuncture
Tui Na Massage
Structural Osteopathy
Mindfulness Teacher
Reiki
Tai Chi & Qigong Instructor
Integrative Coaching
Relationship Coach
Breathwork & Buteyko Method Instructor
Today I consider myself an Holistic Coach and Holistic Therapist Practitioner and I want to share with you all my knowledge and experiences to improve your health and well-being, by using a combination of different treatments, techniques, and strategies which will be tailored for you and the requirements of the condition to treat.

INTEGRATIVE HEALTH
Integrative health is an approach to healthcare that combines the best of conventional medicine with complementary and alternative therapies to address the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. Rather than just treating specific symptoms or diseases, integrative health focuses on promoting overall wellness, preventing illness, and fostering a balanced and healthy lifestyle.
Key characteristics of integrative health include:
Holistic Approach: Integrative health treats the person as a whole, not just addressing isolated symptoms. It recognizes the interconnectedness of physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being, and seeks to balance all aspects of health.
Combination of Conventional and Complementary Therapies: Integrative health combines traditional medical practices (such as medications, surgery, and diagnostic tests) with alternative treatments (such as acupuncture, nutrition, massage, herbal remedies, mindfulness, and yoga). The idea is to use the most effective methods from both to support healing and well-being.
Personalized Care: This approach tailors healthcare to each individual's unique needs, preferences, and values. It emphasizes collaborative decision-making between the patient and the healthcare provider.
Emphasis on Prevention and Wellness: Integrative health prioritizes prevention and overall wellness, promoting healthy lifestyle practices like proper nutrition, regular physical activity, stress management, and mindfulness to maintain long-term health.
Focus on the Patient-Practitioner Relationship: Integrative health encourages strong communication and a supportive relationship between the patient and their healthcare providers, where the patient plays an active role in their health decisions.
Evidence-Based: While integrative health uses a variety of therapies, it still relies on scientific evidence to determine which treatments are safe and effective, ensuring that the combination of therapies is grounded in research.
In short, integrative health is a comprehensive, patient-centered approach that combines conventional medicine with complementary therapies to support physical, mental, and emotional health, with a focus on long-term wellness and disease prevention.
CONSULTATIONS
In my consultations as a Therapist and Coach, I practice Integrative Coaching and Integrative Health Therapies as a Holistic approach, that incorporates different methods and techniques from different therapies. The main goal of Integrative Coaching and Integrative Health Therapy is to help individuals achieve their desired outcomes by addressing all aspects of their lives, which include thoughts, feelings, emotions, and behaviours.
I take a client-centered approach, meaning that I work with the client to identify their strengths, values, and goals and I use a variety of techniques to support the client to make positive changes to achieve their desired outcome. Together we develop a treatment plan that is tailored and flexible to your goals for health and wellbeing.Your plan may include one or more of the integrative practices and can be used to address a wide range of issues.
All the techniques, methods, or therapies used, will depend on the client's needs and preferences. I specifically teach tools so clients can apply the techniques themselves, not just on their current issues but on any challenges they may come up against in the future.
HOLISTIC AND INTEGRATIVE
HEALTH COACHING AND THERAPY
Holistic Integrative Health Coaching is a personalized approach to wellness that blends conventional medical practices with alternative or complementary therapies. The primary focus is on supporting an individual's overall well-being—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual—through a variety of strategies. Here are the core aspects of this type of coaching:
Holistic Approach: It considers the whole person, not just isolated symptoms. Health is seen as a balance between different aspects of life, including physical health, emotional state, relationships, spirituality, and environment. The goal is to help clients achieve balance and harmony in these areas.
Integrative: This means combining the best practices from both conventional medicine and alternative therapies. Integrative health coaches work with clients to navigate different treatment options and wellness strategies that may include nutrition, exercise, stress management, mindfulness, and complementary therapies like acupuncture or herbal medicine.
Personalized Support: Health coaching is highly individualized, recognizing that each person's needs, lifestyle, and goals are unique. A holistic health coach will typically help set personalized goals and create a plan that fits the individual’s values, needs, and health challenges.
Empowerment and Self-awareness: A key component of holistic health coaching is empowering clients to take an active role in their healing journey. Coaches help clients develop self-awareness and make informed decisions about their health, offering guidance on how to develop sustainable habits and make lasting changes.
Behavioral Change and Mindset: Since much of holistic health is about changing unhealthy habits or attitudes, the coaching often involves a focus on mindset, behavioral changes, and mental resilience. Coaches help clients adopt healthier behaviors by addressing underlying psychological and emotional factors that might affect their health.
Collaboration with Healthcare Providers: Many holistic integrative health coaches work alongside doctors or other healthcare providers to ensure that clients receive a well-rounded approach to their health. They may help clients better understand medical diagnoses, treatment plans, or medications and support them in making lifestyle changes that complement their medical care.
In summary, holistic integrative health coaching seeks to help individuals achieve optimal well-being by addressing all areas of their life—physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual—through a blend of conventional and alternative practices tailored to the individual's unique needs.
