What is Integrative Medicine?
Many terms have been commonly used to describe this field over the past two decades. Alternative medicine was a term used to express approaches that were separate from conventional medicine. Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) then became the preferred term, indicating a broad range of healing philosophies and approaches that were outside of conventional approaches but could be used as stand-alone alternatives or adjunctive approaches to conventional care. Integrative medicine is a newer term that emphasizes the integration of CAM approaches with conventional medicine, and is the term that is preferred by educational and governmental institutions.
Integrative Healthcare/CAM focuses on the whole person and includes physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health. For example, this includes mind-body medicine (such as Shiatsu/Acupressure, Meditation, Progressive Relaxation, Hypnosis) and manipulative and body-based practices (such as Shiatsu, Massage Therapy, Spinal Manipulation), and natural products (such as herbs and dietary supplements). A Healing Place provides a number of these modalities as mentioned above.
Who’s Using It?
The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) recently surveyed Americans on their use of complementary and alternative medicine. The survey, which gathered information from more than 20,000 adults and nearly 10,000 children, found that about 40 percent of adults and 12 percent of children use some form of complementary and alternative medicine. Even our American Olympians use CAM.
How We Can Help:
At A Healing Place, we take a holistic approach and provide integrative healthcare for your needs. We believe that the whole person is made up of interdependent parts and if one part is not working properly, all the other parts will be affected. In this way, if people have imbalances (physical, emotional, or energetic) in their lives, it can negatively affect their overall health. We believe that the patient is a person, not a disease and that treatment involves addressing the cause of the condition, not just alleviating the symptoms. We can assist you with a variety of musculoskeletal concerns, anxiety, relaxation, digestive issues, PTSD, sports performance & recovery, and more. Please explore the pages here to see the treatments and services we offer and make an appointment today, either online, phone/text 217-416-7649 or email.

As physical beings when we allow ourselves to expand and relax our energy field, we begin to move away from physical and material concerns and back toward the world of Spirit and Energy, which is a basic component of all things. As we attune ourselves to this connection – to the balance of life – to the flow of energy -- and allow our ears, senses and hands to listen to our client’s needs, both to those areas that are tense and those that are empty, then we actually allow energy to not only flow but to be created within them. In this way we can work with the essential wholeness behind the physical and come back towards the source from which all things are created. - adapted from Beresford-Cook, Shiatsu: Theory and Practice.
