Written by physicians who are experts in both traditional and complementary medicine, this book uses a clinical, disease-oriented approach to safely and effectively incorporate alternative therapies into primary care practice for reducing costs and improving patient care while focusing on prevention and wellness for a better quality of life. Drawing on available scientific evidence and the authors’ first-hand experiences, it covers therapies such as botanicals, supplements, mind-body, lifestyle choices, nutrition, exercise, spirituality, and other integrative medicine modalities.
