Gerontologist Now Offers Health and Wellness Coaching

Ryan Duffy

Do you want to improve your lifestyle? Most of us have room to improve our sense of well-being physically, socially, emotionally and spiritually. It’s a common state called “being human”. That’s why Ryan Duffy, owner of Alternative Aging Fitness and Wellness, has decided to offer health and wellness coaching for middle-aged and older adults. “Many Boomers want to age with vitality,” he says, “but where they fall short is implementing and maintaining new and healthy habits.”

For Ryan, coaching isn’t only about learning what is healthy; it also involves awareness, preparedness and some inner exploration. “Taking control of one’s wellness is a matter of motivation as well as investigating and becoming aware of who you are and who you want to be.” In order to achieve balance and personal success, one needs to develop insight, accountability and solid planning. 

Ryan is a gerontologist who specializes in personal coaching for caregivers and people with health challenges such as diabetes, cancer and cardiovascular disease. He also coaches for pre-surgery planning and post-surgery recovery and rehabilitation.
