Wellness transformation is the result of assisting qualified individuals to achieve vastly improved health, higher performance and unique life goals. The formula is a proven system of individualized guidance, motivational support, and the accountability needed to cultivate lasting positive change. Biblical principles are applied. At Exalted, this proven system is called the Wellness Transformation Program℠ (WTP).
The magic takes place within a relaxed, conversational setting. This allows for active listening and constructive discussion. Topics include, but are not limited to: nutrition, spirituality, exercise, relationships, relaxation, career, finances, hobbies and more. The scope of discussion really is unlimited.
The WTP (along with other services offered by Exalted) does not employ “trick-of-the-week” methods of fooling, forcing, “hacking” or otherwise coaxing wellness into being. The WTP employs a dominant focus on self-care through clean eating, nutrient supplementation, and sound lifestyle choices with a body / mind / soul / spirit mindset constructively applied to the modern world in which we live.
A truly individualized, client-centered approach provides for truly transformative results.

As Exalted’s premier offering, the WTP can assist you with a long list of challenges. Here are just some of the challenges it is effective with:
How can I have more energy in my day?

What can help to clear up my skin?
!!Toxins!! How do I discover them and get rid of them?

What will a better social network look like for me?
-
The WTP is not a personal training program. Typically, the main focus of personal training is exercise alone. The Wellness Transformation Program℠, on the other hand, will involve the suggestion of certain low impact movements or exercises as just one of numerous critical areas of focus. Although not typically needed, a WTP client may find it beneficial to enlist the separate and added services of a personal trainer for the development of a dedicated exercise plan and for direction / instruction during exercise. Personal trainer recommendations can be provided for clients living in certain areas.
-
This is VERY important! Services offered by Exalted Health and Wellness are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. Services offered by Exalted Health and Welllness are not a replacement for the advice of a registered dietetic nutritionist (RDN). Services offered by Exalted Health and Wellness are not a replacement for the advice of a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC). Services offered by Exalted Health and Wellness are not a replacement for medical advice from a licensed physician, clinician or medical specialist. Any and all services offered by Exalted Health and Wellness, including but not limited to WTP and FICS offerings, should be considered as adjunct to regular doctor’s visits. Clients are urged to disclose to their physicians that they are participating in and utilizing the services of Exalted Health and Wellness.
-
Based on the success history of prior clients, the ideal candidate is someone who is physically active, 25 to 55 years of age, already in good health yet desires to elevate their overall wellness and performance potential.
The ideal candidate should NOT be under the care of a medical professional or other practitioner / specialist for a serious chronic illness. The ideal candidate should not have, or suspect they might have, a serious chronic illness. Exercise should be medically permissible. A recent physical exam by a licensed medical practitioner is suggested prior to beginning.
The WTP program addresses client needs and goals over a time period of six consecutive months. Due to the duration of the WTP program, financial and scheduling concerns that could affect a client’s ability to stay committed to and productive in the program must also be given great consideration. Other restrictions may apply. Each case is evaluated individually.
Additional details can be found within this FAQ page, with further details on the “Policies” page.
-
The reality is that wellness transformations do take time! The WTP spans a duration of six months. A WTP client session occurs once every two weeks, reaching a total of twelve sessions held within approximately six consecutive months. This duration of time is necessary to enable a client to develop or re-develop their intuitive sense of guidance, to try various options discovered and to “shift” and adjust, as necessary. Much of the transformative work occurs within the “space between” the individual sessions, and clients are often surprised by how quickly two weeks go by. The effectiveness of this arrangement has been proven. Because deviations will compromise client results, an “accelerated” WTP is not offered.
Not sure if the WTP is the right fit for your goals? See the FAQ about Focused / Intensive Client Sessions.
-
Some prospective clients are doing great with their overall health and wellness, yet may be struggling with one or more tough challenges. These persons may not need, or desire, a long-term program such as the WTP.
Fortunately, there is another option to consider: Exalted’s “Focused / Intensive Client Sessions” (FICS). These are pay-as-you-go individual sessions that are available as often as scheduling allows. Generally, the policies and disclaimers pertaining to the WTP also apply to the FICS offering.
-
There is a cost difference between the WTP sessions and the FICS sessions. This is by design. As Exalted’s premium offering, the WTP includes certain “perks”, which the FICS option does not include. Some of the perks included in the WTP are scheduling priority, detailed session notes, books available on loan, enhanced access between sessions, occasional free gifts, and more. These perks help to achieve the goal of the WTP.
The FICS option is priced to produce results attainably, albeit over a much narrower focus. Many of the perks which are needed with the WTP, are not needed with the FICS option. Therefore, there is a difference in the per-session cost between the two options.
-
Yes, that is an option! Some client-graduates choose to “stay on” and continue with occasional, as-needed, FICS sessions. Accountability and support are key, and priceless - especially when in pursuit of more complex goals occasionally discovered during the Wellness Transformation Program℠. It should be noted, however, that the ultimate goal of Exalted Health and Wellness is to equip clients with skills, abilities, knowledge and resources to be their own source of motivation and further personal development.
-
The WTP is a bible-based program. Initially, the program included a more basic “spiritual” focus. Since that time, it has become clear and evident that a bible-based focus contributes immensely to the initial and ongoing success of clients in the program.
Please Note: Biblical principles and scriptural references are typically employed with all clients.
-
A note from Spiro: “As the owner and founder of Exalted, I have personally witnessed the initial and ongoing transformation that inevitably occurs when wellness improvement principles are effectively and constructively applied to one’s life. Since starting a Wellness Transformation Program℠ with Exalted Health and Wellness, all clients who made the WTP a priority achieved health and wellness goals they previously thought were unreachable. Additionally, several clients reached personal goal markers far sooner than expected. Instances such as these illustrate the effectiveness of the Wellness Transformation Program℠ offered through Exalted Health and Wellness. Put simply, my job is to help you to transform your wellness, period.”

If you have read the Policies page (link at the bottom of this page) and also the Frequent Questions page (main menu) and you are interested in taking the next step, a health inquiry interview is the next step. This is a thirty-minute, in-person informational interview where background and current health information (submitted in advance by you) is reviewed, and discussed. The health inquiry interview is used to determine which, if any, of the services offered by Exalted Health and Wellness are a match for your needs and goals. Time is reserved for questions. There is a non-refundable fee for this interview. The current fee for a health inquiry interview is $50.00. The fee is payable in CASH or by CHECK before the start of your health inquiry interview.
Please note: There is a non-refundable $50.00 fee for the health inquiry interview. ALL prospective clients are strongly advised to carefully read through the Policies page, and also the Frequent Questions page before requesting a health inquiry interview. You can request an interview by visiting the Contact page.
-
One of the keys to maximizing program results is the client’s willful and authentic desire to commit, to participate in, and to thus receive the full benefit of services offered by Exalted Health and Wellness. This point is explained further in the Policies section (see link at page footer). Accordingly, “surprise gifting” someone the services offered by Exalted Health and Wellness is not recommended.
-
Generally, a “for couples” offering is not available. The Wellness Transformation Program, in particular - along with other “intensive focus” options - are much more effective when time is spent addressing the unique needs and goals of one client at a time.
Please note that couples are always welcome and encouraged to partake in group lectures and workshops, when these are being offered.

Exalted is currently operating in the Northeast Florida (Jacksonville Beach) area of the United States.
Exalted Health and Wellness believes in the concept of in-person client sessions. In-person client sessions do work best, and can be the “key” where other approaches have failed to generate results. Therefore, persons NOT living in proximity to where Exalted is operating MAY not be able to partake of the services offered by Exalted. If you are reading this and fall into this category, Exalted recommends that you seek the wellness coaching services of someone local to you. A local wellness coaching service provider can be an invaluable asset to your goals not only by meeting with you in person, but also through connections they have within the community where you live. Exceptions to this recommendation are possible, and have been made. Clients have done great! However, such results may be “the exception” more than “the rule.”
