Project Description

Amani Nicol Wellness is America's first preventative health practice integrating infrared sauna therapy and lifestyle medicine to reduce the risks of chronic diseases for women 40 years of age and older.

 

The Practice Transformation has three key components: CLARITY. CAPACITY. COMMUNITY.  (See video)

 

Healthy Lifestyle Programs supported by the Practice Transformation:

1. Beautifully Well Lifestyle Program (BWLC): Signature program for women

2. Vibrancy: Adapted to meet the needs of the aging community

3. Project Inclusion: Multi-Language BWLC: Signature program offered in Spanish and American Sign Language

4. Managing T2 Beautifully: DSMES- Diabetes Self Management Education and Support

 

What will we do with funding? 

  • Administrative: Practice Transformation (described in video)

  • Human Resources: Hire Program Manager, Part-time Lifestyle Coach, Contract a part-time dedicated dietician to DSMES, and stipend our interns from Gallaudet University and Morgan State University

 

Women are amazing, resilient, and sometimes too busy to notice changes in their health. Women over 40 can experience increased risk factors for chronic diseases like hypertension and type 2 diabetes due to perimenopause and  menopause. 

 

Stress is the barrier to better health. Managing stress improves metabolic health. ANW combines sauna therapy for stress reduction and culturally relevant evidenced-based health interventions. 

 

We use the amazing benefits of infrared sauna therapy to reduce stress, increase energy, and empower a desire for healthier behavior. Lifestyle coaching with a focus on stress management and nutrition compliments her efforts to achieve sustainable changes. Our Beautifully Well Lifestyle Program is the intervention propelling results and is a stand alone health insurance covered program. 

The total project goal is $175,000.  We secured a $20,000 government contract and we're currently applying for grants.

 

Our partners range from stakeholders in public health to contracted Managed Care Organizations like Care First. Although these logos do not represent all of ANW's partners, the partners listed play a vital role the delivery of our healthy lifestyle interventions. 

 

 

 

America's first CDC Recognized Diabetes Prevention Program in American Sign Language. Our program launched a pilot in 2022. In 2023, based on feedback from the 12 month intervention, we begin a four phase translation project with the assistance of Gallaudet University's School of Public Health Interns.
