Integrative medicine, the greatest complement to traditional medicine

Integrative medicine aims to improve the health of patients through non-traditional therapies such as serum therapy, ozone therapy, neurotherapy, acupuncture, mindfulness, functional nutrition, psychological support, yoga or meditation, among others. In addition, it is effective against all kinds of diseases, whether it helps in the healing process or in healing.

The treatments that make up integrative medicine in clinical practice have been combined with prior scientific analysis of their effectiveness and evidence.

It also approved a strategy for the years 2014-2023 in favor of the integration of traditional and complementary medicines.

Integrative medicine is a practice that recognizes that the “whole” is more than the sum of its parts, and from this point of view, what the WHO is looking for through this amalgamation is that treatments be more individualized to alleviate not only existing diseases but contribute to psychosocial well-being who is also affected by it.
