Lifestyle and Performance Medicine shows promising impact on Airman, Guardian readiness
A new medical approach is being offered to Airmen and Guardians, which has shown to improve and sustain medical readiness and health by taking a more patient-driven, whole body approach to care. The Air Force Medical Service endorsed the creation of Lifestyle and Performance Medicine to improve how providers address barriers to health.
Currently, the new approach to health care is being formally offered at Travis Air Force Base, Whiteman Air Force Base, the U.S. Air Force Academy, and Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. However, the foundations of Lifestyle Medicine are currently being delivered by trained practitioners throughout the Air Force.
