A Green Prescription (GRx) is a health professional's written advice to become more physically active as part of their overall health management. Your health professional may decide a GRx would be good for you if:
- You are keen to become more physically active
- You want to improve your eating habits
- Or you have a medical condition which would improve with a change in lifestyle
