We have been having some fantastic conversations with different healthcare providers to understand how they work, the challenges they face and where they see their future care provision going with the rapid pace of health technology development. There are clear differences in both challenges and opportunities between different healthcare environments, for example between a musculoskeletal clinic vs sports teams vs preventative health and so on.
 
Something we have been reflecting on is the explosion in capability and opportunities for technology, not least AI, but the sweet spot amongst all of this - that seems too often overlooked - is how that technology can fit into a real-world workflow and does it *really* solve a problem. Finding this sweet spot takes as much work as developing the technology itself and something we have been working hard on with Healthfinder as a truly problem-led idea.
 
We believe the best solution is not necessarily the ”best tech” but finding the right match between that technology and the problems different people face in their healthcare work. What do you see as the biggest challenges we face in healthcare today? Note something in the comments or perhaps you are up for a short chat with us to listen to how things are in real world clinical practice. If so, get in touch! 🤝

Creating more understanding - a real case 🌿
 
Healthfinder provided context for ”Jon”, a 53 year-old who sees his Osteopath for back pain, but recently had a workplace health check where blood tests showed he had slightly high blood sugar. Jon knows he could eat better but was unimpressed by the generic advice to ”eat less sugar”.
 
After discussing this with the Osteopath, he completed a Healthfinder to look at what other health factors may be going on that could really direct care. His results showed high stress and poor quality sleep (likely inter-connected) which are both known to affect cravings and drive for risky foods like sugary or processed foods. By understanding this he felt less judged for reaching for sweets or biscuits and with the osteopath developed a strategy to manage stress and improved his sleep.
 
This helped to ultimately reduce his blood sugar over time and improve his understanding of what is driving his health and wellbeing. Simple and impactful, yet most health care is still missing the simple information that drives most of the care decisions. Taking the time to ask the right questions can help to support individuals and raise the level of care. Something that can be challenging in a world where we are overwhelmed by data and technology.

Stronger Through Menopause 🏋️

Strength training and regular physical activity are increasingly recognized as effective non-pharmacological strategies for managing menopausal symptoms. Research suggests that exercise can improve muscle strength, bone health, and metabolic and hormonal markers, while also reducing vasomotor symptoms such as hot flashes.

Beyond physical benefits, regular activity is associated with better sleep, improved mental well-being, and enhanced overall quality of life. Different types of exercise offer complementary effects, strength training mainly supports physical and vasomotor outcomes, while mind-body approaches like yoga also benefit psychological health and sleep. Combined training programs can provide broader benefits.

No single exercise modality appears superior, consistency and regular engagement seem to be the key drivers of positive outcomes. Structured, regular exercise should be considered a fundamental component of menopause care, either as a complement or alternative to pharmacological treatment.

The problem with Preventive Health
 
The preventive health market is booming, with seemingly new providers popping up every week. However, there is a problem in that most of what is labelled as ”preventive” is still focused on disease and the markers that only shift once something has gone wrong. This could be blood tests you order, or the tests you get with a preventive health appointment. These are great and very important if you don’t have symptoms yet and pick something up early, but is this really preventive?

Something has already gone wrong to be picked up as ”wrong” or ”abnormal”.  True prevention means turning the focus upstream and looking at what has changed or shifted before something goes wrong: the so called determinants or drivers of health. Importantly, this does not mean replacing any medical tests which are highly valuable, but until we widen the lens to include upstream drivers we miss what can be prevented - as well as the context to what we might find in those medical tests - we are not being preventive or proactive.

This is what Healthfinder is built for: turning early health changes and context into structured metrics that guide care and add value to every treatment. If you are curious how you could use Healthfinder, get in touch and let’s have a short chat! 🌞

We were at the conference at the weekend and contributed two talks.

The first by Hazel, ”Distilling the Detail” about the masses of information we capture in a typical clinical encounter with reflections on how we handle this in practice to support treatments.

Daniel spoke about AI, with a short history and discussed ways that healthcare practitioners can utilise these effectively.

It was great to meet osteopaths from all over Sweden and with the new osteopathic course starting at , we hope the osteopathic community in Sweden continues to grow as it is a special one.

Also very proud to say that Hazel was named Osteopath of the Year. This is an award nominated by her osteopathic peers and recognised her going above and beyond to raise standards and share knowledge amongst the profession and to other professions. Bra jobbat! 🏆

Gut Health as Foundation for Health 🦠

A 2022 review (doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2022.999001) brings together evidence on the striking role of the gut microbiome in regulating key systems across the body, including inflammation, metabolism, immune function and of course brain health via the gut-brain axis.

The way we live shapes the microbiome: diet, sleep, stress, physical activity, social connection and more. When this system is disrupted it is associated with a wide range of conditions such as metabolic disease, depression, cardiovascular disease and cognitive decline. What is striking about this is how connect gut health is to many systems in the body and the interconnectedness of it all.

The microbiome is not a separate ”nice to have” for gut health, it appears foundational for wider health and wellbeing. As healthcare providers this means that we should consider gut health and aim to support it as part of a more systems-based or proactive approach to treatment and prevention. If you would like us to cover how we can do this in more detail, hit us up in the comments or via DM.

Why should you consider our new course? 🌱
 
We will soon be launching our new course Proactive Care & Lifestyle Medicine in Practice Course (PCLMP). This has been carefully crafted to provide a highly practical framework for using proactive care and lifestyle medicine strategies in your clinical work.

It takes you through each area of lifestyle medicine (sleep, diet, stress, physical activity, connections, environment) and covers key skills such as supporting behaviour change, micro-changes and micro-interventions, all with a highly translatable approach including case examples to bring it to life.

We don’t swamp you with theory, we want to give you the key skills you can try out easily in a way that does not disrupt how you already work. So if you are interested in exploring this rapidly growing field that many different types of healthcare provider are integrating into their way of working, get on the waitlist by contacting us via DM and we can give you with a unique discount for when the course launches!

Lovely to start the day with a team breakfast with colleagues. Eggs, green smoothie, avocado and tomatoes with a thoughtfully-made coffee accompanied some planning of a fresh type of workplace health check. Despite there being many more providers of ”health checks”, most remain focused on blood markers and other downstream tests and are episodic with little support in between. We have come up with something different. Do you want to get a copy of our plan? Write ”health signalling” in the comments and we can share it with you.

Early Health Signalling 💫
 
Healthfinder is designed for for healthcare providers to help capture early health signals. It fills in blind spots that may be driving symptoms and allows different signals to be tracked over time. It generates insights highly relevant to guiding care and monitoring progress to treatment, whilst fitting naturally into a range of settings including clinical practice, manual therapy, workplace health, performance, and longevity. Importantly, it works without disrupting clinical sessions.

Healthfinder acts as an additional layer of insight that complements how you already work and takes minimal time to implement, yet has the potential for large impact for you and your clients or patients. We strongly believe this is the future so if you are curious about how this could fit into your practice, we’d be happy to show you how it works. Send us a message if you would like a short demo or conversation.

Purpose as a Resource for Healthy Aging ✨

People are living longer than ever before. At the same time, the number of years lived with disability is increasing. This makes it crucial to identify factors that help older adults maintain their health and functional ability.

One factor gaining growing attention is sense of purpose in life. Research consistently shows that individuals with a stronger sense of purpose tend to have better health outcomes, including a lower risk of chronic disease and premature mortality, as well as better biological functioning.

Kim et al. (2020) found associations between higher purpose in life and a lower likelihood of becoming physically inactive, developing sleep problems, or developing an unhealthy BMI over time.

Purpose may represent a promising resource in preventive health. Interventions that help individuals strengthen their sense of meaning could potentially support psychological, behavioral, and physical health and contribute to healthier aging in a rapidly growing older population.

Healthcare remains largely reactive. Much of the ”preventative health” available still uses reactive frameworks. What does it look like to practice more proactively? We have been working hard on something that is practical, grounded in solid evidence and experience, yet contextualised in the bigger picture of the challenging healthcare landscape we live and work in.

Proactive care and lifestyle medicine are critical to meeting these challenges. Our new course ”Proactive Care & Lifestyle Medicine in Practice: A practical framework for stronger engagement and better outcomes ” is coming soon and focuses on integrating lifestyle medicine into everyday clinical practice in a way that doesn’t add much time or replaces anything in your current approach.

The beauty of proactive care is that often it is not about doing much but making a small change in the right place in the right way. More details coming soon! 🌱
