About the Fellowship in Preventative Medicine, Nutrition and Sports Medicine (FPMNSM)

The Fellowship is a 6-module series that covers a variety of topics. During the Fellowship, participants will:

  • Learn Sports Medicine Protocols for the safe and effective exercise and nutrition prescriptions for the treatment, care and prevention of 65 different diseases, disabilities and dysfunctions, including
    • cardiovascular/pulmonary diseases
    • aging-related diseases
    • athletic injuries and performance training,
    • longevity and maximizing lifespan functionality.
  • Examine case studies and hands-on practical procedures in Preventative Medicine, exercise and nutrition.
  • Practice counseling techniques that increase patient initiation and retention in physician-directed exercise and nutrition
  • Discover how to positively impact all aspects of your patients' lives with a "whole-patient, whole-life approach"
  • Master the five most important IFPA Components of Fitness
  • Gain new incite in the practice of treating people, not diseases.

Members of the FPMNSM Fellowship will be dedicated to using non-invasive sports medicine, nutrition, preventative medicine and exercise protocols for the treatment, care and prevention of disease, disability and dysfunction for their patients and by instituting these protocols will return them to optimum health and performance. 

The Fellowship in Preventative Medicine, Nutrition and Sports Medicine takes a dynamic approach to teaching: Physicians and Sports Medicine professionals who participate in the training will demonstrate the sports medicine protocols learned in the Fellowship on themselves prior to their patients. The participants will personally observe increases in their own strength, speed, power, anaerobic and aerobic endurance, agility, balance, coordination, flexibility, and body composition. They will become a great role model for their patients.
