The Optimum Health Clinic

What is The 90 Day Reset Programme?

The 90 Day Reset Programme is the Optimum Health Clinic’s groundbreaking psychology-based course. The Optimum Health Clinic is one of the world’s leading clinics specialising in ME, CFS and Fibromyalgia, with a number of the clinic’s teams having personal experience in these areas.

The 90 Day Programme was originally created in 2006 and since then it has been consistently revised and updated by the OHC psychology department.

In 2019 Alex Howard, the founder of the OHC, created an online psychology-based programme called The RESET Programme. The 90 Day RESET Programme brings together both of these cutting-edge courses, allowing you to experience the best of both in a supported way.

All of the psychology practitioners who run The 90 Day Reset Programme have had their own personal experience of ME/CFS, which gives them a real understanding of the kind of challenges that patients are dealing with.

One of the most challenging things that the psychology practitioners found on their personal journeys was the overwhelming variety of different ideas and approaches.

What are the core components of The 90 Day Reset Programme?

The programme is run over a period of approximately 12 weeks and offers a combination of online videos and resources with weekly group sessions with a practitioner at OHC. 

The content of The 90 day Reset Programme has been formed from what we call “The 3 Pillars of Healing,” and they are as follows:

How is this different to other programmes out there?

There are three key factors that distinguish The 90 Day Reset Programme from other approaches available. This is the first truly integrative programme, taking a holistic view which necessarily involves the mind, body and emotions. Optimum health is the harmony of these three elements working together, and treating just one of them consequently misses parts of the puzzle.

The second key difference is that the format of the programme also ensures that you not only have the tools to make the changes that you need but also have the time and support to reinforce them. The unique format gives you a personal introduction group session by zoom at the beginning of the programme so you can start to form bonds with each other and learn the best way to approach the programme. The following weeks include a combination of videos, homework and a weekly one hour zoom session as a group where you can ask questions and be supported to put everything you are learning into place. The combination of group sessions and the online materials support you to begin the process of change, and you will be supported to continue and implement that change. At any point in the programme, you can also choose to have one to one sessions with your practitioner. 

This programme is the result of years of different formats in which the psychology team have tried to precipitate and simplify the journey; it is the integration of not just all of the cutting-edge approaches available, but also the most effective way of applying them.

The third essential difference to other approaches is that many of those delivering the programme have personally been through the very experiences of those on the programme. This gives the team a truly compassionate and understanding approach.
