Webinar Description:
The one-size-fits-all model of health and fitness is outdated and can leave your clients feeling frustrated and uninspired. Genetic testing and the truly personalized approach to wellness that it affords, is the future of preventive health. There are exciting and innovative opportunities for fitness and allied health professionals to successfully integrate genetic testing into their current practice. In this webinar, we will breakdown the science behind DNA testing and how it directly relates to lifestyle and health markers, show you how practitioners are using genetic testing to increase revenue and improve client outcomes, and what to look for when choosing a provider. This understanding will enable you to successfully integrate tailored exercise and wellness programs that are personalized to the individual.
