Integrative Medicine

Integrative medicine is an emerging field that emphasizes the combination of both conventional and alternative approaches to address the biological, psychological, social and spiritual aspects of health and illness. 

Integrative medicine uses a combination of evidence-based conventional and holistic treatments to improve gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms in a safe and effective way and reduce the need for medication in some cases.

Conditions Treated

GI conditions we treat using an integrative medicine approach include:

·       Inflammatory bowel disease

·       Functional abdominal pain

·       Functional dyspepsia

·       Constipation

·       Gastroesophageal reflux disease

·       Irritable bowel syndrome
