What coaching covers

The work that keeps patients moving forward.

There are only so many ways to grow a cash-pay practice without adding complexity or compromising what you have built. Health coaching opens up a new revenue stream and keeps patients more engaged, more consistent, and more connected to the progress they are making under your care.

Weight management

Nutrition habits, plateau navigation, sustainable behavior change around food and movement.

"I've hit a wall at week 6 and I don't know what to adjust."

Stress management

Coping strategies, sleep habits, and nervous system regulation for patients on demanding protocols.

"Work has been brutal. I know it's affecting my progress."

Nutrition coaching

Building sustainable eating habits, improving food relationships, and supporting the nutritional goals that complement your patients' care plans. Delivered within NBHWC scope of practice.

"I know what I should be eating. Actually doing it is the hard part."

Habit formation

Accountability, routine building, and behavior change for patients who know what to do but aren't doing it.

"I keep falling off after a good week. Every time."

Exercise, mobility and flexibility

Building consistent movement habits, improving range of motion, and maintaining the physical work that supports your patients' protocols.

"My doctor said walk more. I'm not sure where to start."

Also covers: sleep quality, medication adherence, social support, confidence in care plan, and more depending on your patient population.

What you get

More revenue. Stronger retention. Nothing to manage.

New revenue

Your practice sets the patient-facing price for coaching. Habit Layer's cost to you is fixed per patient per month. Everything above that is yours. Most clinics running wellness memberships add $25 to $100 per patient per month in net margin with no additional overhead.

Stronger retention

Patients who have consistent support between visits stay in care longer. They show up to appointments having done the work, which makes those visits more productive and makes the relationship with your practice stickier over time.

More referrals

Patients who experience consistent, tangible progress tell people they know. A practice that offers coaching as part of its care model is easier to recommend than one that doesn't. That compounds quietly over months.

How it works

Fits the way your practice already runs.

Here is how the arrangement works: Habit Layer provides the coach, manages the coaching delivery, and handles everything operational. Your patients experience it as a service your practice offers. Your name is on it. Habit Layer's name is not. You decide what to charge, how to position it, and which patients to enroll. Most practices land on one of three models depending on how they are already structured.

Care program

A coaching program with a clear beginning and end. Patients enroll individually or as a cohort and work through a structured arc with their health coach. Easy to present as a premium add-on to an existing care plan.

Works well for: Functional medicine, post-protocol, new patient onboarding

Care plan navigation and support

Ongoing care plan support between appointments. Patients have a dedicated health navigator keeping their habits on track and their clinical goals moving forward. Structured as a retainer with consistent access and consistent support.

Works well for: Higher-volume practices, any practice where patient follow-through between visits is a known challenge

Who it's for

Built for practices where the work between visits is just as important as the visit itself.

Health coaching adds the most value where patients are on active protocols that require sustained behavior change, and where a patient who stays engaged for six months is worth meaningfully more than one who disengages after two.

Nutrition coaching completes the picture for members working toward their health and fitness goals, giving them the support that keeps them engaged and coming back.
