Integrated Pathy

Integrated Pathy: Re-envisioning Healthcare and Wellness Using India as a Case Study brings together the best holistic treatments tailored to improve patient care. It is a unique resource that has proven to improve illness management, lifestyle disease conditions, quality of life, minimizing drug side effects, maintaining mental and physical health and healing, lowering overall health care costs, and improving communication between healthcare professionals and patients. Integrated-pathy focuses on health and healing rather than disease and treatment. Instead of following the fragmented approach of modern and contemporary line, or more specifically the allopathic regime of treatments, this book views patients as a complete entity inclusive of minds, spirits, and bodies and includes these dimensions in the diagnosis and treatment to provide a custom healing regime. It pays attention to inherent lifestyle factors such as diet, exercise, quality of rest and sleep, and the nature of relationships. This book presents a fresh perspective on revitalizing traditional indigenous practices and makes reference to the reliability and efficacy of so-called traditional and alternative therapies, both of which will undoubtedly contribute to the advancement of the ecosystem of research in this field.
