We should bring ancient wisdom it into our time as practice of Integrative Medicine. Why should we limit ourselves sometimes something is effective and safe? Don't we want that available to all? Don't we want the best clinical outcomes for everybody? We can probably reduce costs of healthcare by using Integrative Medicine therapies. For example, studies showed that use of acupuncture and music in the hospital can help patients to use less opiate analgesics. It can help pain relief after surgical operations. And with less opiates patients have fewer opiate-related side effects. They had less constipation, fewer falls. Integrative Medicine makes medicine better.
