Message from the director:
What is integrative medicine?
It is a philosophy and practice of how we care for patients and ourselves: Integrative medicine is authentic medicine - It's what patients and providers believe in their hearts and minds is the right treatment, based on all current evidence and informed by their beliefs, values and experiences. Integrative medicine is everyday medicine - It’s the way you live your life, the food you eat, the environment you live in, the relationships you maintain. And Integrative medicine is, simply, medicine. - It is using the best approach to help you not just treat disease, but flourish in your life. While integrative medicine has been referred to as the “new” medicine, it is in many ways a return to principles of medicine from the time of Hippocrates: a focus on science-based practices while acknowledging the body’s natural healing capacity. By combining conventional Western medicine with time-tested, proven practices from around the world, we expand our care options for a variety of conditions and diseases. By remembering the core principles of healing and the need to care for the whole patient, we can better relieve suffering. Our vision for the future of individual care and ultimately, our healthcare system revolves around introducing new integrative care models into the mainstream. As part of The Osher Collaborative our faculty are working together to create innovative clinical models of care, advance medical education, and collaborate on research initiatives. We are dedicated to taking a leadership role alongside the five other Osher Centers for Integrative Medicine to create positive change in healthcare for individuals and better health for communities.
The team at the Osher Center for Integrative Medicine invites you to experience a unique healing experience. We are dedicated to being your partner in achieving your goals. |
