This document summarizes a presentation on providing therapeutic lifestyle changes (TLC) for patients. It discusses how TLCs are recommended by national health organizations for treating various conditions. It then outlines a 5 step system used at a chiropractic clinic to implement TLCs, including assessing patients, advising on lifestyle changes, setting goals, providing assistance and arranging follow up. Case studies show TLCs effectively improved patients' health risks, biomarkers and lifestyle factors within 12 weeks.
