Have you ever met someone who loves the same things you love, talks about the same things you talk about, and socializes with the same people as you? And you hit it off so well you just know the friendship could last forever?That’s what happened to us!
I am very pleased to share that Total Health Dental Care has recently joined forces with Whole Foods Market to be one of the exclusive network partners of the Whole Foods Market Wellness Club in Oakland.
Why Whole Foods Market?
Needless to say, I’ve always thought we aligned very well with Whole Foods Market. Like us, they promote whole foods and sound nutrition to enhance people’s well-being. Like us, they include herbs as valuable supplement choices. And like us, they proudly serve those with a holistic, health-conscious perspective.
So when Oakland’s Whole Foods Market created a Wellness Club, I knew we’d make an excellent partner.
What’s the Wellness Club?
Oakland’s Whole Foods Market Wellness Club is a membership-driven program that educates and empowers participants to enjoy greater total health. (Sound familiar?) In their own words:The Whole Foods Market Wellness Club provides an inviting environment to empower members to make educated and positive lifestyle choices that promote their long-term health and wellbeing through coaching, delicious food and a supportive community.
The goal of the Whole Foods Market Wellness Club is to offer people the opportunity to take their well-being to the next level through education, cooking, coaching and a support structure aimed at ensuring long-term success.
In a nutshell, the Wellness Club provides paid members with:
- A discount on select healthy foods
- Classes or talks on subjects like nutrition and wellness
- Cooking demos and community events
- A supper club providing healthy meals
- Fitness and yoga classes
- Support meetings and private coaching
- Access to local network partners promoting health and well-being.
Why we became local network partners.
After learning about the Wellness Club, it was clear we shared their mission and could make a positive impact on the lives of their members. We approached Caesaré Assad, the Oakland Wellness Club Team Leader, and Ashley Erickson, the Associate Team Leader, to discover what they wanted in a partner.
They wanted a partner that emphasized the benefits of a healthy lifestyle. Check! They wanted a partner that could provide great value to their members. Check!And they wanted a partner that aligned with their mission. Double check!
It was very clear that we could help their members by teaching them about, and providing access to, whole person dentistry. So, as a local network partner, we’ll have our nutritionist discuss food strategies that impact the mouth, mind and body. I’ll give talks on whole person dentistry. We’ll provide access to our wellness consultants and our dental services. And we’ll also give access to our insurance alternative, the Total Health Dental Care Membership Program.
Really, it’s a win for the Wellness Club, a win for its members and a win for us. We love that!
Want to learn more?
We think the Wellness Club provides its members with fantastic resources to lead a healthier, more enriched life. We wouldn’t have partnered with them otherwise. So we encourage you to check it out for yourself.
Visit them online. Or go to the Oakland Whole Foods Market in person. We think you’ll be as impressed as we are.
In fact, it might be like visiting a new best friend. 😉
