Integrative Medicine is the treatment of mind, body and spirit at the same time. Many practitioners claim to practice this, however when asked what specific treatments they employ to treat the spirit they say listening and advising.
Unfortunately, those two things are a given in the practice of medicine not a specific "treatment" per se. (this does not apply to talk therapies). Finding a practitioner who truly encompasses Integrative Medicine is difficult at best. Again, many will claim to do this.
In Chinese Medicine, practitioners have time tested treatments for the spirit and mind in addition to the body. In homeopathic medicine all three modalities exist and many practitioners use all three. In naturopathic medicine, the same.
However, again not all practitioners use all three. Some Western physicians will claim to practice Integrative Medicine and this is simply untrue. There are no treatments for the spirit and pharmaceuticals do not fall under the category of Integrative Medicine for the mind.
The best way to determine a practitioner's Integrative Medicine capacity is to look at their website, testimonials and then speak directly to them.
