When working with folks on long-term issues, one way to gain deeper insights and plan care is to connect health and fitness tracking devices to Practice Better. With most folks tracking at least some of the health and wellness data in an app or wearable, what better way to work with what’s already available than connecting it to Practice Better for realtime insights? This allows us to identify trends over time, track wins, and optimize our session time so you get the most out of our in-person or Telehealth appointments. Now that’s integrative care!

Don’t have a wearable but still want to track food, activities, sleep, or other health items?
Practice Better’s Journal feature is a great way to track things like hydration, nutrition, sleep, movement, and other health and wellness activities to help us dig deep and optimize your care.
Whether adding your favorite recipes, taking a picture of a meal on the go, or just hitting that 8 glasses of water a day button (you are getting at least 8, right?) Practice Better has made it easy to track what’s important and watch positive change over time.
There are even freeform fields to track things like mindfulness activities (think meditation or journaling), reproductive health items, and more.
You’re welcome to poke around in the Practice Better Portal or App and check out Journals for yourself, we can also spend a few minutes in session discussing what items may be best to track in the journal based on your health needs and goals.
