Traditional medicine does not offer remission, only suppression.
Integrative medicine does, using the same background but just a little different thinking.

When I started doing Laparoscopic surgery more than 20 years ago, it was not widely known. There was distrust about something not widely known. Doctors would dissuade their patients contemplating Laparoscopic surgery : ‘ How can they operate with such limited visibility? Tell them to do open surgery, they can see better’ !! When the fact is that viewing through a telescope provides magnification and therefore better visibility!

20 years later, it is back to the same situation with Integrative Medicine. But this time, I see something different. I see hope. I see people willing to take a chance, doctors and patients alike. Dealing with illness for so long, with no hope of ‘recovery’, the premise we offer is surely seductive. And I’m seeing people willing to take the chance on their health.And that’s very promising. Maybe we can actually create an awareness of Preventive and even ‘Curative’ health. So that no one need be ‘ill’ anymore.
