Sound familiar?
“I left the appointment with a pamphlet and a follow-up in three months.”
“I know what I’m supposed to eat. Doing it every day, in my house, is another thing.”
“They said ‘prediabetes’, gave me a leaflet, and told me they’d re-test in a year.”
“I was told it only gets worse. Part of me doesn’t accept that.”
Put your diabetes plan into practice.
Coaching helps you make everyday changes alongside the treatment plan from your diabetes team. Your coach works with you on meals, movement, sleep and stress. Your GP or prescriber continues to manage your medicines and blood tests.
Meals
Plan eating changes you can manage at home and when you are out.
Activity
Build movement and strength into your week.
Sleep and stress
Review routines and choose practical changes with your coach.
Follow-up
Discuss what worked, what was difficult and what to try next.
Keep your regular diabetes reviews while you work with your coach.
Regular support: Your coach helps you choose practical actions and reviews how they went at your next session.
Scheduled check-ins give you time to ask questions and adjust the plan between sessions.

Published research has found some people can reach remission with intensive, well-supported lifestyle changes. We don’t promise remission, reversal or reduced medicines. What we do promise: mapping the drivers, testing targeted changes, and measuring the result with your GP.
Yes. The programme is built for type 2 and prediabetes, and the work is the same: food, muscle, sleep, stress and follow-through. We measure with your GP so you know whether the drivers are moving.
Never. As your numbers change, your medicines may need reviewing, which is exactly why your GP stays in the loop.
Yes, done properly - meaning your GP knows. Changes to eating and activity can lower blood glucose, so your prescriber may need to review your medicines as you go.
They’re clinical experts - use them. A PREKURE Coach works alongside them on the doing, week after week, not the advising.
Your Metabolic Map summarises six areas of your daily life: sleep, nourishment, movement, stress, alcohol and smoking, and metabolic health. You review it with your coach to choose where to start and track changes through your programme. It is not a diagnosis or a replacement for clinical assessment.
The Action Plan Session is free. Essentials is $490, Core is $990 and Gold is $1,890. A single coaching session is $150. All prices are NZD.
No - but we’ll ask you to tell your GP you’re doing this and keep your regular reviews.
PREKURE Doctor is opening soon. Join the waitlist on the clinic homepage and we will email you when bookings open. Keep your current GP; this service will work alongside them. Your GP continues to manage your diabetes care and medicines.
HbA1c reflects about three months of blood sugar, so it moves slowly and can’t be rushed. That’s why the outcome review sits at the end of the programme, alongside the blood tests your GP already does.
A Certified PREKURE Coach trained in lifestyle medicine and behaviour change. Your coach helps you set practical goals, plan actions and review progress through sessions and check-ins. Coaching works alongside your GP and healthcare team.
Coaching gives you regular time with a trained person to plan changes and review progress. The free Action Plan Session helps you decide whether that support would be useful for you.
For adults with clinician-diagnosed type 2 diabetes or prediabetes who are suitable for coaching. This programme works alongside usual clinical care and does not replace medical advice or medicine review. PREKURE Diabetes does not prescribe, supply or adjust medicines.
