Yes Health’s all-mobile platform blends technology with a team of coaches to help members with weight loss, diabetes prevention, or general well-being support.

By adding Yes Health to the Gympass network, members now have a single place on their mobile devices where they can go for quick, easy-to-use and personalized care plans that includes diabetes prevention, nutrition counseling, fitness coaching, sleep, wellbeing support and much more.

SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB)
May 24, 2021

Yes Health, a leading digital health provider focused on weight loss, diabetes prevention and concierge health coaching, has today announced a partnership with Gympass, the world’s largest corporate fitness and well-being platform. The deal provides Gympass clients with a CDC-recognized, all-mobile platform that blends technology with a team of dedicated health coaches that helps members with weight loss, diabetes prevention or general well-being support.

Yes Health is a lifestyle and behavioral-change system that offers technology tools and personalized coaching in one mobile-based platform aimed at preventing chronic conditions and promoting overall healthy lifestyles through better nutrition, fitness and well-being support. Augmented AI enables the unique in-the-moment coaching engagement system. This means that a team of specialists delivers to the member the right digital therapy at the right time and the right place. Members want their feedback when they make decisions, not after the fact. With no appointments necessary members are able to access coach feedback and in-app resources at their fingertips delivering up to 12 times the learning moments compared to other phone- or video-based coaching programs.

“U.S. employers are facing unprecedented disruption with higher levels of employee stress, anxiety and other health concerns, causing the most innovative employers to recognize that their teams need access to sophisticated digital health tools that can help employees take control of their health,” said Alexander Petrov, founder and CEO of Yes Health. “By adding Yes Health to the Gympass network, members now have a single place on their mobile devices where they can go for quick, easy-to-use and personalized care plans that includes diabetes prevention, nutrition counseling, fitness coaching, sleep, wellbeing support and much more.”

Recent studies have shown that most U.S. employers are now willing to provide their workforce with digital health tools that can improve health, viewing them as a worthwhile investment. Those that do not are at risk of a less-productive workforce, higher rates of employee stress and more expensive insurance premiums. Reaching a remote workforce, and giving teams access to quick and effective lifestyle management tools, helps get the widest reach with the highest level of engagement. This has only become more relevant with the challenges employers have faced with COVID-19.

The CDC reports that chronic health conditions and unhealthy behaviors significantly reduce worker productivity. Five chronic diseases or risk factors—high blood pressure, diabetes, smoking, physical inactivity, and obesity—cost US employers $36.4 billion a year because of employees missing days of work. However, specific to diabetes, the inability to work because of diabetes-related disability cost $37.5 billion in 2017, with absenteeism accounting for $3.3 billion and employee productivity losses costing $27 billion.

“Our mission is to make wellbeing universal by providing a more engaging and accessible corporate wellbeing platform. With Yes Health’s amazing personalized care plans, we are one step closer to making that a reality for our clients and their employees,” said Rodrigo Silveira, SVP of New Ventures at Gympass.

Gympass chose to partner with Yes Health because its easy-to-use platform has been proven to drive high engagement and better health outcomes for users without requiring complex technology or expensive resources. Yes Health is also available to Spanish-speaking users and provides a full suite of tracking features to monitor user progress.

Yes Health has tens of thousands of active users nationwide and provides its platform to dozens of top enterprises, including large health insurers and employers.

Yes Health is the first fully CDC-recognized, all-mobile solution that offers diabetes prevention, weight loss and concierge health coaching programs. All programs provide in-the-moment coaching designed to empower people everywhere to start living healthier, happier lives. Our team of physicians, health coaches, wellness experts and engineers have created an interactive, highly engaging lifestyle-change platform that’s low-cost and easy to follow with proven success in type 2 diabetes prevention, weight loss and healthy lifestyle improvement.

The platform has outperformed the standards of care thresholds set forth by the CDC for over 3 years.

There are some dark corridors in America’s medical industry that desperately need to be addressed so that we can go beyond just treating sickness to helping people live healthier, happier lives.

GREENSBORO, N.C. (PRWEB)
May 17, 2021

As the COVID-19 pandemic swept across the U.S. in early 2020, many people, especially those with underlying conditions, found themselves faced with a virus that had the potential to kill them. The foothold the virus took in daily life raised the nation’s level of consciousness about the state of the American healthcare system and humanity’s ultimate vulnerability to sickness. Spurred on by the desire to empower others to learn more about and advocate for their health, Naturopathic Doctor Abdel Jaleel Nuriddin published his comprehensive wellness resource, “Help Yourself to Ultimate Health: Know the Causes, Symptoms, and Solutions to Optimal Health”.

In “Help Yourself to Ultimate Health,” Nuriddin draws upon his faith as a Muslim and the lessons taught in the Holy Qur’an as well as his extensive experience in naturopathic medicine to teach readers the power of changing one’s thinking when it comes to health. Nuriddin’s book guides readers on their path to detoxing their bodies of harmful agents, replenishing lost or missing nutrients, and cultivating good habits like regular restful sleep, exercise, and meditation.

“The problems are just so huge today in terms of health and nutrition,” Nuriddin said. “Allopathic medicine falls short of where it needs to be in terms of helping people with their overall health. When it comes to pharmaceuticals and surgical procedures, we have a great allopathic system. But building better health is just not part of the regimen. There are some dark corridors in America’s medical industry that desperately need to be addressed so that we can go beyond just treating sickness to helping people live healthier, happier lives.”

“Help Yourself to Ultimate Health” also examines the ideas of healers such as Dr. Bernard Jensen, Victor E. Irons, Dr. Bill Horosh, and others who have promoted the use of herbs and enzymes to cleanse internal organs and bolster health. Ultimately, Nuriddin reminds readers that fighting disease is not the first call to action when managing health and that focusing on the important cornerstones of nutrition, fitness, and mindfulness can provide powerful outlets for healing.

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)
May 13, 2021

The women’s wellness innovators at YogaClub are excited to detail some of the community development operations included with it’s innovative seasonal activewear subscription.

This will directly shape the outfits releasing in the upcoming quarter, and will even allow women to vote on the items you like most, so they can get them at a more affordable rate than in stores. This is part of YogaClub’s commitment to a people-first focus, by allowing users to be part of a democracy and feel their voices are both heard and valid.
