The 6 pillars of lifestyle medicine
Pediatric lifestyle medicine helps children thrive by focusing on six key areas of health. Each pillar works together to support growth, development, and overall well-being.
Nutrition Counselling
Children learn how to make balanced food choices, enjoy a plant-forward diet, and develop healthy habits that last a lifetime. Guidance is personalized to fit each child’s needs and family routines.
Social Connection and Community
Strong relationships with family, friends, and peers are vital for emotional and social development. Encouraging positive connections help children feel supported and valued.
Restorative Sleep
Adequate sleep is essential for growth, learning, and emotional health. Pediatric lifestyle medicine helps establish consistent routines that ensure children get the restorative sleep they need.
Avoiding Risky Substances
Education about the dangers of ultra-processed foods, excessive screentime, and other vices (alcohol, smoking, etc.) is introduced in an age-appropriate way, helping children make safe choices.
Stress Management and Mental Wellness
Children learn healthy ways to manage stress and build emotional resilience. Simple mindfulness techniques, breathing exercises, and supportive guidance help children feel calm and confident.
Physical Activity and Movement
Regular activity (whether play, sports, or exercise) supports strong muscles and bones, improves mood, and boosts energy. Children are encouraged to move in ways they enjoy, making exercise fun instead of a chore.
Conditions & challenges addressed
Our team supports families through a wide range of health challenges using proven lifestyle medicine principles. Whether your child is facing physical symptoms, emotional struggles, or chronic conditions, our team creates personalized care plans to help them feel better and live healthier lives.
We address the following conditions and concerns:
If your child is struggling in any of these areas, we’re here to help with compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to your family’s needs.
Our holistic care process
We follow a compassionate, structured care process designed to give your child the personalized support they need to thrive. Here's what to expect:
Get a referral
To begin, your child will need a referral from your family doctor or pediatrician. Once we receive and accept the referral, your child is ready to start their journey with our holistic pediatric lifestyle clinic.
Complete Medical History
We will ask you to fill out a detailed intake form. This helps us understand your child's full health story—every detail you share helps us build the most effective care plan possible.
Personalized One-on-One Consultation
Once we have all the necessary information, we will schedule a one-on-one virtual consultation with our pediatrician. During this consultation, we will discuss your child's health concerns, answer your questions, and begin working together to create a plan that fits your child's needs and your family's goals.
Custom Care Plan and Implementation
Your child may be referred to members of our multidisciplinary care team, which includes a dietitian, social workers, wellness coach, and other specialists.
The plan may include group sessions, SMART family goals, and helpful tracking tools for meals, sleep, activity, and more. Engaging resources such as nature walks, cooking challenges, and daily meditations make it easier for your child to build healthier habits.
Ongoing Support and Outcomes Tracking
We are committed to your child's long-term success. Your child will receive regular follow-ups, encouragement, and care adjustments based on their progress. Over time, we will collaborate with your primary care provider to ensure continued support as your child grows. Our goal is sustainable, lifelong wellness for your child and your whole family.
What our clients say
My daughter was struggling tremendously with anxiety.
We are so thankful for Dr. Patel's approach to health and healing. It’s been two years now and my daughter has only continued to improve. I highly recommend Reset Pediatrics to anyone who has a child struggling.
We began working with Dr. Rikin Patel about a year ago, during a particularly challenging time for my 6 year old son who has autism.
I’ve recommended Dr. Patel to many other parents. My advice is: trust the process, ask questions, and commit to trying his suggestions for at least a few weeks. If you do, you’ll start to see real changes.

Frequently asked questions
Lifestyle medicine is an approach to healthcare that uses evidence-based lifestyle interventions to prevent, treat, and even reverse chronic diseases. Chronic conditions in the pediatric population are growing. Lifestyle medicine recognizes that many of these conditions, such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure and cholesterol, digital addictions, and headaches (to name a few) are strongly impacted by lifestyle factors, including diet, physical activity, stress management, sleep, and social support.The core principles of lifestyle medicine work to empower parents and children to make healthy choices and adopt behaviours that promote overall well-being. Rather than relying only on medications, lifestyle medicine practitioners focus on addressing the underlying root causes of disease through lifestyle changes.
You can expect quality time and dedicated attention to address your child's health concerns. Once we receive a referral from your physician, you will complete a lifestyle-focused questionnaire sent through our secure online portal. This questionnaire provides important data that helps our team better address your child's specific health concerns before the first visit. Depending on the nature of your child's concern, you will typically be seen by our pediatrician for an initial assessment. Lab tests may be ordered as needed, and we will determine if other Care Team members should be involved. By the end of your first visit, we will develop a complete care and follow-up plan for your child. Because we focus on lifestyle interventions, your child will likely benefit from seeing multiple members of our Care Team.
To maximize accessibility and convenience, we conduct all visits through our telemedicine platform. This means appointments are entirely virtual. If any team member determines that an in-person meeting is necessary, we will collaborate with you to schedule an in-person appointment for your child.
Before coming to the appointment, it is important that all forms and questionnaires are filled out and returned by the due date requested. This allows the Care Team the necessary time to review your child’s medical history before the appointment. The information gathered prior also then facilitates a more effective and efficient appointment to maxmize the time spent together. If the pre-appointment forms are not completed in time, your child’s appointment will be rescheduled.
Yes, your child should be present at individual appointments
All children must have a referral sent by their family doctor, pediatrician or nurse practitioner to Reset. Families will be contacted by the clinic to start the intake process.
If an appointment is not cancelled or rescheduled more than 48 hours before the appointment a fee of $100 will be charged.
