Integrative medicine is healing-oriented medicine that takes account of the whole person (body, mind, and spirit), including all aspects of lifestyle. It emphasizes the therapeutic relationship and makes use of all appropriate therapies, both conventional and alternative.

 

The principles of integrative medicine:

A partnership between patient and practitioner in the healing process

Appropriate use of conventional and alternative methods to facilitate the body’s innate healing response

Consideration of all factors that influence health, wellness and disease, including mind, spirit and community as well as body

A philosophy that neither rejects conventional medicine nor accepts alternative therapies uncritically

Recognition that good medicine should be based in good science, be inquiry driven, and be open to new paradigms

Use of natural, effective, less-invasive interventions whenever possible

Use of the broader concepts of promotion of health and the prevention of illness as well as the treatment of disease

Training of practitioners to be models of health and healing, committed to the process of self-exploration and self-development

 

Integrative medicine combines mainstream medical therapies and CAM (complementary and alternative medicines) therapies for which there is some high-quality scientific evidence of safety and effectiveness. Dr. Weil is actually the world’s leading proponent of integrative medicine. For further reading on Integrative medicine click here.
