Integrative Medicine
What is Integrative Medicine?
Integrative Medicine is a holistic and functional approach to healthcare that views the body as an interconnected system. It addresses the unique genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that contribute to an individual’s health. The combination of conventional Western medicine with alternative or complementary therapies sets this apart from traditional treatment. The goal of integrative medicine is to focus on treating the whole person, addressing not only the physical symptoms but also considering mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being to identify and address the underlying imbalances that may lead to various health concerns.
Key Principles
- Holistic Approach: It views the patient as a whole, taking into account their lifestyle, environment, and overall health, rather than just focusing on a specific ailment.
2. Patient-Centered Care: Integrative Medicine emphasizes the importance of a strong doctor-patient relationship and encourages active participation of patients in their own healthcare decisions.
3. Combining Therapies: It integrates evidence-based conventional medicine with alternative therapies such as acupuncture, chiropractic care, herbal medicine, mind-body techniques, and nutrition.
4. Prevention and Wellness: Integrative Medicine places a strong emphasis on preventive measures and promoting overall wellness, recognizing the role of lifestyle factors in maintaining health.
5. Personalized Treatment Plans: Treatment plans are tailored to individual patients, taking into consideration their unique characteristics, preferences, and needs.
6. Collaborative Care: Practitioners of Integrative Medicine often work in a collaborative manner, involving a team of healthcare professionals from different disciplines to provide comprehensive care.
