Western + Integrative Medicine
Not One or the Other. The Answer is Both!
What is Integrative Medicine?
Integrative medicine is an approach to care that puts the patient at the center and addresses the full range of physical, emotional, mental, social, spiritual and environmental influences that affect a person’s health. Employing a personalized strategy that considers the patient’s unique conditions, needs and circumstances, it uses the most appropriate interventions from an array of scientific disciplines to heal illness and disease and help people regain and maintain optimum health.
Integrative medicine is grounded in the definition of health. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines health as: “A state of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.”
