Integrative Care
Integrative medicine "combines
mainstream medical therapies
and complementary alternative
therapies for which there is some
high-quality scientific evidence
of safety and effectiveness.”
~ The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine at
the National Institutes of Health,
Integrative medicine takes
account of the whole person
(body, mind, emotions and
spirit). It emphasizes the
therapeutic relationship and
makes use of all appropriate
therapies, both conventional
and alternative.
