PCLM is actively working toward the accreditation of lifestyle medicine centers, clinics, facilities, and practitioners through a council recognized by the Department of Health. This aims to pave the way for the inclusion of lifestyle medicine services in PhilHealth coverage.
Hence, as a newly emerging medical specialty, Lifestyle Medicine requires the ongoing development of standards and practice frameworks aligned with the Philippine Qualifications Framework (PQF) set for a Diplomate or Clinical Fellowship credential.
This will ensure that lifestyle medicine practitioners possess the necessary clinical competencies to deliver high-quality services that are consistent with the standards of established medical specialties.

10th Annual Lifestyle Medicine Conference

Bridging the Gap: From Clinical Practice Guidelines to Prescription Lifestyle Intervention

From Ill-Care to Well-Care

Healthcare is rapidly evolving. While clinical practice guidelines continue to provide strong evidence for the prevention and management of chronic diseases, many healthcare professionals still face the challenge of translating these recommendations into meaningful, sustainable lifestyle interventions that patients can implement in everyday life.

The 10th Annual Lifestyle Medicine Conference brings together physicians, specialists, allied health professionals, health coaches, educators, policymakers, and healthcare leaders to explore how evidence-based lifestyle medicine can move beyond theory and become a powerful clinical prescription for better health outcomes.

From September 29 to October 1, 2026, join us at Quest Hotel, Clark, Pampanga, as we examine practical strategies for integrating lifestyle medicine into routine clinical care. Through expert lectures, case-based discussions, hands-on workshops, and real-world success stories, participants will learn how to bridge the gap between clinical practice guidelines and effective lifestyle intervention programs that address the root causes of chronic disease.

The Goal

The Philippine College of Lifestyle Medicine is committed to advancing the field by providing ongoing scientific activities designed to enhance and update the competencies of lifestyle medicine practitioners and advocates. These activities—ranging from conferences and workshops to research presentations and continuing professional development programs—serve as platforms for disseminating the latest evidence-based knowledge, clinical best practices, and innovations in lifestyle medicine. The goal is to equip healthcare professionals with up-to-date skills and insights that support the effective implementation of lifestyle interventions in the prevention, treatment, and reversal of chronic diseases. Through these initiatives, the College fosters a culture of lifelong learning, interdisciplinary collaboration, and professional excellence in the practice of lifestyle medicine across the Philippines and beyond.
