Using foods, nutrients, lifestyle changes, and herbal medicines
to offer nourishment and greater balance

WHAT IS INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE?

 

Integrative medicine is an approach to care that seeks to integrate the best of Western scientific medicine with the ancient knowledge and practice of Oriental Medicine. We work closely with your physicians to better craft optimal paths to healing and maintaining wellness for our patients.

The idea is to offer patients the best of traditional Western medicine in complement to therapies that have and are proving effective in maintaining health. In it’s most basic expression in the medical system, medical institutions are providing support for lifestyle changes and emphasizing a more patient centered and compassionate healing relationship between patients and their caregivers. Where the skills and expertise of wellness oriented medicine practitioners, which historically have been alternative, or complementary, are collaborating with Western physicians greater efficacy is seen for the wellness of the patient.

Collaborative Care

At New Harmony Center we see the patient as the “hub of the wheel” and the various practitioners the patient is seeing as at the end of the spokes. As your practitioners one aspect of our service to you is to create the tire tread that gives traction to the patient’s healing.

New Harmony’s Optimal Wellness Program potentiates your healing process through its collaborative care model.

Utilizing the best of the medical traditions of Naturopathic and Chinese Medicine, we customize our care packages to optimally support and enhance the healing and well being.
