Our Philosophy
Inspired by Blue Zones. Backed by Science.
Encora’s approach is rooted in the global concept of Blue Zones—regions known for exceptional longevity and health outcomes. We bring these same principles—balanced nutrition, daily movement, stress reduction, and social connection—into our practice to support long-term physical and mental health. Through the integration of lifestyle medicine and psychiatric care, we help patients create meaningful, lasting change.
