Rotation Guide & Goals
Integrative medicine is healing-oriented medicine that takes account of the whole person, including all aspects of lifestyle. It emphasizes the therapeutic relationship between practitioner and patient, is informed by evidence, and makes use of all appropriate therapies. Residents will have the opportunity to rotate through various integrative medicine clinics within LPCH in Inpatient Integrative Consults, Peds Pain, GI, Pulm, Sleep. Goals will be to familiarize residents with integrative and alternative therapies such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, supplements, the anti-inflammatory diet and mind body medicine (clinical hypnosis, biofeedback, guided imagery). Depending on individual resident interest, mini-workshops on acupuncture/ acupressure, medicinal teas, aromatherapy with essential oils can be arranged, likely throughout the year. The elective also includes a WHOLE FOODS field trip for case-based workshop on supplements and herbs.
