Your New Year of Lifespace Begins Now

What is Lifespace?

Lifespace is when we make decisions on Activity, Nutrition and Sleep (ANS).

We estimate that most patients visit a doctor one to five times a year, and each visit is about 20 minutes in length.  Those 100 minutes are the most we can impact patient health.  The other 525,500 minutes in our lives are when we're at work, or at home with our Families.  It's in this Lifespace where the choices we make impact our lives and our health.

In this Lifespace, we want to focus on the triad of factors that our patients can become invested and help to manage their health - Activity, Nutrition and Sleep.
