What is the “Why of Wellness?”

The Why of Wellness is a form that we created at Omnia Health to understand our patients better. The first half of the form is a scaled questionnaire. For example, on a scale from 1-10 how would you rate the following:

1. Physical health
2. Emotional health
3. Relationship health
4. Family health
5. Self-Care health

Why do we care?

Functional Medicine is looking at the root causes of disease. We know that you have a lot of symptoms and we want to help you. However, we need to know where you came from, what motivates you, where in your life causes you the most stress, etc. All of those questions matter in figuring out your root cause. 

Your “Why of Wellness” appointment

We go over this form in an appointment together because everybody’s numbers are different and mean different things. It’s very subjective to you! Sometimes people tell me that some days they are a 4 and other days they are 6. That’s great information to share and helps me get to know you better.

The second part of the “Why of Wellness”

In this section, we ask some short answer questions. For example, what are your top 3 health goals? Or what things have you tried in the past to accomplish goals? We need to know these answers so we can help you move forward and find success in the future.

Patient Feedback

At the end of the “Why of Wellness”, patient’s have found that they have felt heard. They appreciate that we take the time to listen and to understand them. It’s very important to us that we understand all of you. So we can help you achieve all of your health goals.

In health,
