What is Integrative Medicine? The best answer to this question is the answer given by the University of Arizona Program in Integrative Medicine Center. The Center defines Integrative Medicine (IM) as 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.
Patient and practitioner are partners in the healing process.
All factors that influence health, wellness, and disease are taken into consideration, including mind, spirit, and community, as well as the body.
Appropriate use of both conventional and alternative methods facilitates the body’s innate healing response.
Effective interventions that are natural and less invasive should be used whenever possible.
Alongside the concept of treatment, the broader concepts of health promotion and the prevention of illness are paramount.
