Integrative medicine is the practice of using conventional medicine alongside evidence-based complementary treatments. Integrative medicine uses an evidence-based approach to treat the whole person — your mind, body and soul. Your physical, emotional, and mental needs are all involved, so integrative medicine uses a combination of therapies. It “integrates” conventional approaches, complementary therapies, and self-care practices to achieve optimal health, healing and wellness.
People who take an active role in their Healthcare, experience better health and improved healing. In this program we will learn about this holistic approach to healthcare that includes practices not traditionally part of conventional medicine, such as, acupuncture, meditation, massage, movement, resiliency, and nutrition. In many situations, as evidence of their usefulness and safety grows, we will explore how these therapies are used alongside conventional medicine.
