3. How to find the right Integrative Healer for you.
1. Integrative medicine is a holistic medicine which depends on a partnership between the patient and the doctor, where the goal is to treat the mind, body, and spirit, all at the same time.
2. Some compelling reasons to choose Integrative Medicine are:
To be proactive, to take control and charge of decisions that affect your health, your experience, your results and outcomes.
To fully participate in your own care and your own decisions rather than giving decision-making power away to your care providers.
To create a sense of empowerment and accountability rather than be disenfranchised and disempowered.
To decrease and manage your uncertainty, fear, stress and anxiety and to support, increase and improve your peace of mind.
To enable your care providers to work with you as a team and for them to show respect for your values, your feelings and your choices in all decisions.
3. To find candidates in your area, search online using the phrase, ‘Find an Integrative Energy Healing Practitioner’. Remember that healing practitioners have different strengths, specialities and interests. Call or email the practitioner you are interested in and interview them to see if they are someone who you could build a relationship of trust with. Their expertise, experience and understanding are there to support your health goals. Ask them how they would best support your goals and needs. Sometimes the best way to make a decision is by receiving a treatment from that practitioner. If you feel that your health concerns will be fully met by the practitioner, your choice will be made.
