How It Works

How It Works

Nutrition coaching at Palms Pilates is designed to be personalised, supportive, and appropriate for each individual.

This helps make sure the service is the right fit for you—and that the support provided is aligned with what this style of coaching can (and can’t) offer.

Once you have completed your purchase, you’ll receive a detailed lifestyle questionnaire.

This step allows Sam to confirm that nutrition coaching is suitable for you at this time. The programs offered are non-clinical nutrition coaching, focused on lifestyle, habits, and practical guidance. They are not designed to replace medical nutrition therapy or clinical dietetic care.

This process is in place to protect your well-being and ensure the coaching provided is ethical, safe, and effective.

Only eligible clients will be invited to proceed with a program.

If your responses require any additional consideration, Sam will contact you to discuss your options.

If coaching is deemed unsuitable for you, we will process a full refund of your purchase.

The questionnaire helps identify:

• whether nutrition coaching is appropriate for your current circumstances
• whether clearance from an allied health professional is required
• whether a referral to another practitioner may be more suitable

The questionnaire covers areas such as:

• current eating habits and routines
• lifestyle and daily schedule
• exercise and movement levels
• goals, priorities, and challenges
• preferences that may affect planning and sustainability

There are no “right” answers—this information simply helps shape a practical, realistic approach that fits your body and your life.

What This Means for You

This process ensures that:

• nutrition coaching is delivered responsibly
• expectations are clear from the start
• programs are personalised, not generic
• clients receive support that is appropriate to their needs

It also helps maintain a consistent standard of care across all programs.

A Considered Approach

Nutrition coaching works best when it’s the right support at the right time. The screening and intake process is not a barrier—it’s a foundation for thoughtful, personalised guidance that supports long-term health and sustainability.

If you have questions about eligibility or the process, you’re always welcome to get in touch before applying.
