Origins + Dr. Andy Weil

Top5

Here are our 5 favorite principles to defining integrative medicine (thanks Origins!)

1)	All factors that influence health, wellness, and disease are taken into consideration, including mind, spirit, and community, as well as the body.
2)	Appropriate use of both conventional and alternative methods facilitates the body’s innate healing response.
3)	Good medicine is based in good science. It is inquiry-driven and open to new paradigms.
4)	Integrative medicine neither rejects conventional medicine nor accepts alternative therapies uncritically.
5)	Patient and practitioner are partners in the healing process.
