Welcome

Ahoy!

My name is Dale A. Stiles. I am an IT Systems Manager, Certified ScrumMaster®, Integrative Nutrition Health Coach (INHC™), OSHA® Certified Safety and Health Officer, and a retired United States Navy Fire Controlman Chief. As a Fire Controlman, I was responsible for controlling shipboard weapons systems. My duties included managing a surface search radar, a tracking radar, a tactical data computer, and a thermal imaging optical sighting system.

Why did I become a Health Coach?

After struggling with unexplained health issues for decades, I started reading, and I learned how to heal my own body through diet and lifestyle changes. When I finally started finding answers, and started to mitigate the symptoms of my own health issues, I immediately started helping people who were suffering from the same symptoms I was and were struggling to get answers from their health care professionals.

As my knowledge and experience grew, so did my hunger to learn more so I enrolled in an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach Training Program to learn the best way to help my family and friends while working alongside their medical care providers to promote positive changes in their health and well-being. I embarked on a year long health coach training program and I’m now able to network with some of the best doctors and health care providers in the country.

As I neared graduation, I chose to take an Advanced Course in Gut Health because that is where my journey started and that is who my heart goes out to the most. Internal suffering is the hardest to diagnose by health care professionals because all vitals and labs show there is little to nothing wrong but if you’re going through it, you know it is the most unpleasant, disabling, and painful experience you’ve ever had.

I would wake up in tears, completely drained of energy, gut wrenching, feeling like I was about to die and slide out of the bed trying not to wake my wife up, pushing through the pain to hobble or sometimes crawl to the bathroom and cry. It felt like a little tiny demon with very sharp claws was wiggling and clawing it’s way out of my stomach. Most doctors don’t know how to approach the symptoms I was experiencing. The run labs, look at the results, and then prescribe a pill. For me, that pill seemed to help for a while, but over time, it made the problems many times worse over time.

As more health coaches are entering the medical field, the physicians and health care providers are starting to learn, but it is not something that is taught in medical school so health coaches are stepping in to fill the gap. I have lived the digestive health/gut health nightmare and I would love to help anyone and everyone I can avoid the feeling of a tiny demon with razor sharp claws trying to escape from the inside out.

I have also added the Advanced Course in Hormone Health to further assist myself, my family, and my clients with their health. Getting our gut microbiomes and our hormones in balance are some of the best ways to reach homeostasis. Once the body is in balance, you can embark on other goals you have.

Why Are Health Coaches Important?

A health coach helps you design a health and wellness plan that works for you. You and your health coach will create a personalized health plan that will take you from where you are currently to where you want to be with your overall health and wellness goals.

What Can a Health Coach Do For You?

An Integrative Nutrition Health Coach works one-on-one with individuals who want to improve their health and well-being. Using concepts drawn from psychology, behavior change, and life coaching fields, a health coach helps their client overcome obstacles to maintain healthy habits for life.

What Programs Are Offered?

Some of the programs offered are a General Wellness program, an Immunity Booster program, and a Nutrition and Functional Fitness program. I will add others in time. To see an updated list of programs, please visit the Programs Page.
