More Info

Detailed Description:
Integrative holistic medicine embraces conventional medicine and complementary therapies that are based in science. It focuses on the whole person, mind-body-spirit, with a strong emphasis on the physician-patient partnership. Integrative holistic medicine is based in the following principles:
• Health is more than the absence of disease.
• A person is more than their symptoms and healing requires a whole-person approach.
• Empowered patients make long-term and lasting changes that support healing and optimal health.

Research shows that nearly one in three Americans seek out complementary and alternative medicine to supplement conventional care.
Patients are now asking their physicians about the medical value of
these treatments and therapies. Since complementary and alternative
medicine has not become routinely incorporated into most medical
school curricula, health care providers are seeking trusted sources for
learning about these techniques. This course was created with these
needs in mind and sets reasonable standards for the application of
integrative holistic medicine.
Join Scripps Center for Integrative Medicine and the American Board
of Integrative Holistic Medicine for a one-of-a-kind educational experience
that includes an up-to-date review of integrative holistic medicine
science and research, as well as an opportunity for personal renewal.
The course format includes lectures followed by question-and-answer
sessions and experiential morning programs. Faculty are renowned
experts in integrative holistic medicine and provide practical summaries
on a wide range of mind-body-spirit topics.
