[pharmacy] is a Health Quest Integrative Clinic with practitioners that can treat our patients holistically and work with them on their journey to improve their health.
Integrative medicine is an alternative approach to medicine where an individual will work closely with us in order to build the optimal picture of long-term health for their body.
In order to determine this, we need to understand how your body functions, including any underlying conditions you may already have, and any family history or lifestyle habits that could cause illness.
It seeks to understand the underlying cause of your symptoms or condition.
This then allows us to use an evidence-based approach to treat you as a whole person — your mind, body and soul – not just your illness or disease. With integrative medicine, your physical, emotional, mental and spiritual needs are all involved.
It integrates conventional approaches and complementary therapies, such as medication and psychotherapy combined with complementary therapies such as yoga and acupuncture to achieve optimal health and healing.
We can explore multiple alternative therapies, or use a mix of traditional/western medicine to treat them, while preventing future or additional illnesses from developing. The alternative therapies can include acupuncture, meditation, yoga, therapeutic diets, massage, and botanical medicine.
