Integrative Medicine (IM) treats the whole person not the disease. IM treats each person differently because the root cause of their disease is different. Allopathic medicine treats symptoms so there is one treatment for all.
In a medical survey 68% of people valued their doctor’s kindness and communication skills over their medical knowledge.
