Complementary and Alternative Medicine takes a holistic approach to your health. Unlike more conventional methods, alternative treatments look at the individual as an interconnected set of systems. Rather than focusing on symptom mitigation, these treatments focus on restoring the optimal balance of your physical, mental, energetic, and spiritual dimensions. Some alternative therapies have a particular focus on the mind or body, while others may focus more on the energetic state or the spiritual aspects of the person.
