Complementary therapies are becoming ever more popular in the medical field, with patients using therapies to reduce symptoms or side effects, as a natural healing therapy or as emotional coping mechanisms.
Empowering and educating people about self-care, helping people to work on the root cause instead of the symptom and showing people that there are complementary ways to support the body and mind other than just via a prescription is fundamental. Integrative Health is the joining of Conventional Western Medicine and Complementary Therapies.
The Integrative Health Convention, now in its second year, supported by the Earl and Countess of Devon, and in association with the College of Medicine, aims to raise the profile of Complementary Therapies that are appropriate, successful and safe – bridging the gap with Conventional Western Medicine.
Experts from over 30 different fields of Complementary Health & Medicine will share their knowledge over 2 full days, giving you insights into what they do and how you can apply it in your practice or personal life with topics ranging from Acupuncture to Ayurveda, Massage to Mindfulness, Nutrition to Hypnosis, Psychology to QiGong, and many more.
The Convention is a fantastic opportunity for people interested in such therapies to Share, Learn, and Connect with a huge variety of healthcare professionals coming together to find out better ways for people to get better using more than just one form of health or healing.
“From the start of the conference, attendees felt connected and inspired by the same shared values – a true desire to help people, to make a difference, an absolute commitment to give the best care, have the courage to create change and a willingness to learn and work together.”
Looking forward to being at the event. Its a must attend weekend for those of us who work or aspire to work alongside conventional medicine.
