Integrative medicine is a term used to describe therapies that treat the patient as a whole person. That is, instead of treating a specific illness or chronic disease holistic medicine looks at an individual's overall physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional wellbeing before recommending treatment using a variety of methods that may include dietary and lifestyle factors. Thorough medical pathology and functional medicine testing is undertaken to determine the root cause of disease.
