Definition(s)
- Integrative medicine (IM) is a term used to refer to the combination of conventional, allopathic medical approaches with healing modalities based on systems of beliefs and values not typically included within biomedical practice; the term is generally referred to as complementary/alternative medicine (CAM). The underlying principle in this combination of therapeutic approaches is holistic care of patients, using all appropriate therapies leading to well-being.
