Synopsis
This groundbreaking text provides the first definitive clinical reference for the rapidly growing field of integrative medicine. Using a clinical, disease-oriented approach, INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE offers practical guidance for safely and effectively integrating complementary and alternative therapies into regular primary care practice. Drawing on available scientific evidence and the author's first-hand experience, it covers therapies such as botanicals, supplements, mind-body, lifestyle choices, nutrition, exercise, spirituality, and more.
- A practical, disease-focused approach makes it easy to reference clinical applications and recommendations based on a patient's disease state.
- The holistic aspects of integrative care focus on the root of the disease process, offering improved care for chronic disease that does not respond as easily to traditional pharmacological treatment.
- The Therapeutic Review and Prevention Prescription sections offer practical overviews of the recommendations discussed in each chapter for fast access.
- Note boxes highlight important, therapy-based pearls that the reader can apply to practice.
- Dosages and precautions are included for supplements and botanicals.
- The Tools for Your Practice section presents "how-to" discussions and handouts to help patients follow specific recommendations.
