Integrated Medicine? To integrate
derives from the Latin integer “a
whole number” or one.
To integrate means to make one. The
fundamental premise of Integrated
Medicine is that we humans (der. ‘hu’ God
and ‘man’ ) are
more than just ‘flesh’-
we are body, mind and spirit!
Today medicine is evolving, drawing
on the resources and strengths
of all medical approaches - both
complimentary and orthodox or ‘allopathic’ medicine.
This process combines the best of
traditional cultural based medical
systems such as Ayurveda, Traditional
Chinese Medicine with the many and
varied 'modern' systems; for example
naturopathy, osteopathy, homeopathy
and so on.
The search for solutions to
modern illnesses, particularly infectious
disease and cancer is demanding increasingly
complex, elegant and precise therapies.
We seek to balance and combine to
produce the optimal outcome. The
holistic approach is needed to make
us ‘One’ again.
My speciality is as a medical
diagnostician and strategist. The
road to self healing is often long
and winding. When we are ill we
often simply lack the energy to
undertake even basic self care.
We are in need of help to infuse
us with clarity, energy and optimism.
My role is to assist you on this
healing journey. We will ‘walk’ together
for a time; to explore, to find
answers working together and to create
a sensible, informed and workable
plan. A plan to empower you and
place you back control of your
own life.
Intrinsic to this integrated medical
approach is a deep respect for
the healing power within us, the
healing power of the plant kingdom
and healing power of nature. The
whole thus becomes much greater
than the sum of its individual
parts.
