"Integrative medicine proposes a partnership between the doctor and their patient." - Dr. M. Fumagalli, Founder
Integrative medicine proposes a partnership between the doctor and his patient for the maintenance of health. It starts by placing the patient as the main actor in the process, as his health agent. The patient no longer passively receives treatment for an illness and actively participates in their health. Health is also an individual responsibility.
In this partnership, integrative medicine brings together professionals from different areas because interdisciplinarity is essential to take care of a patient. It is associated with the treatment of conventional medicine making use of alternative medicine knowledge, such as meditative practices, breathing techniques, relaxation, mindfulness, use of herbal medicines, always based on evidence regarding safety and efficacy.
The service provided by therapists of integrative medicine consists of non-invasive body techniques, free of any religious basis and adapted to the needs and limitations of the patient. Performed individually, they may include physical practices such as stretching, breathing exercises, light massages (without oils or cream) and relaxation practices conducted by the therapist's speech (voice).
The objective of the work is to provide moments of relaxation and well-being to reduce anxiety and stress, be it emotional, physical, or mental.
The basis of the work is the practice of mindfulness exercises in the present moment, which provides this state of well-being and deep relaxation.
