Principles of health and healing in an Integrative Practice
Integrative Practices are therapeutic practices that preserve many of the aspects and strengths of Conventional Medicine and that also include the more holistic methods of Complementary and Alternative Practices.
Do you know what the Principles of an Integrative Practice are? Here I share a list of them.
Acknowledge the wholeness and interaction of Mind, Body and Spirit as well as the energetic nature of the human organism
Encourage the body's self-healing potential
Empowerment of the patient in the healing process by self-care
Recognize that healing is a journey, a gentle and gradual process
Address underlying causes of disease: physical, emotional, environmental and spiritual factors
Emphasize effective and affective communication
Provide individualized treatment to each person
Promote wellness and prevent illness by balancing and harmonizing the person through lifestyle
Accept intuitive awareness and the individual's experiences in determining pathways to healing.
I invite you to take some time to reflect about what your personal beliefs are about illness and healing. I would love to hear about it! If you share the same principles as Elemental Practices, don't hesitate to get in touch!
