Integrative Medicine

What is Integrative Medicine?

Integrative medicine blends the best of science and holistic practices to help you heal. It uses evidence-based conventional and complementary practices to achieve healing and recovery.

At the NuView Treatment Center, we seek to blend conventional and complementary practices together for our best-of-both-worlds integrative medicine program. NuView's integrative health specialists consider you to be an equal partner in your treatment and believe in collaborative, well-coordinated care.

Integrative medicine combines the best of conventional and complementary practices to offer holistic healing and recovery. It blends traditional treatments like psychotherapy and medication with complementary therapies like acupuncture, herbal medicine, and other mind-body techniques. Hence, the term "integrative."

What are the Key Elements of Integrative Medicine?

The key elements of integrative medicine are:

1. Combined Treatment Modalities:

Integrative medicine integrates conventional and complementary therapies. It incorporates a broad spectrum of treatment options and a comprehensive approach to treatment.

2. Holistic Healing:

Speaking of a comprehensive approach, integrative medicine seeks to offer a holistic path to healing and recovery. It goes beyond simply treating symptoms or a specific condition and focuses on the broader mind-body-spirit connection.

3. Client-Centered Care:

Collaboration is central to our approach. Integrative health specialists actively listen to you, understand your needs, and involve you in every step of your treatment journey.

4. Personalized Treatment Plans:

While being holistic, integrative medicine is also personalized. It recognizes the uniqueness of each person and believes that care must be tailored to your specific needs and goals.

5. The Mind-Body-Spirit Connection:

Integrative medicine takes a whole-person approach. It heals the mind, body, and spirit, as overall health is not achieved in isolation.

6. Wellness and Quality of Life:

Beyond healing, integrative medicine focuses on enhancing your overall well-being and quality of life. Integrative health specialists ensure you thrive in life.

7. Preventive Care:

Prevention plays a key role in integrative medicine, enabling you to maintain optimal health and avoid potential health challenges. This involves providing nutritional counseling, anger management, stress management, lifestyle changes, and follow-ups.
