How Does an Integrative Health Center Help Patients

March 28, 2024 by Dr. Daniel Hoover

There are many therapies you may have heard of, such as acupuncture or chiropractic care. Integrative health centers, such as SOHMA, incorporate a number of different specialists together to provide as much help and guidance as possible to help bring balance and wellness to your life.

In this article, we’ll go over five ways integrative health centers help patients on their road to recovery.

Holistic Approach

Integrative health centers provide care for more than just your physical health. An integrative health center considers your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Integrative health centers offer care designed uniquely to the individual’s needs. Each case is different. Integrative health centers like SOHMA not only manage the symptoms of an ailment but also attempt to find the root cause of the condition and treat it using a combination of Eastern and Western medicine without drugs or surgery. It uses a number of therapies in an attempt to return you to wellness through non-invasive means.

Variety of Therapies

Integrative health centers have the convenience of practicing several therapies in the same location. This can be great for those who require more than one form of therapy to aid in their recovery and return to wellness. At SOHMA Integrative Medicine In Long Beach, CA, we offer therapies and services, including:

  • Chiropractic Care
  • Physical Therapy
  • Spinal Decompression Therapy
  • Laser Therapy
  • Massage Therapy
  • Cupping Therapy
  • Acupuncture
  • IV Therapy
  • Herbal Therapy

This helps us enable a tailored wellness solution to fit your unique case. Integrative health centers provide complementary therapies based on your needs and preferences.

Prevention

While resolving an issue or treating a condition is typically what people look for in integrative health centers, they also emphasize preventative care. This is because maintaining health and preventing illnesses can significantly reduce potential injuries or visits to the doctor in the future. Integrative health centers educate patients on lifestyle and wellness to encourage long-term health. Recovery is significant to regain your health and overall wellness; however, integrative health centers work on getting ahead of conditions. For example, IV therapy can boost your immune system to avoid certain infections, while practicing Tai Chi can help you alleviate stress, which can lead to several conditions.

Personalized Treatment Plans

Integrative health centers create treatment plans tailored to your unique and specific needs. They take into consideration your preferences, health goals, and medical history. This establishes a unique approach to your personal care. A benefit of having many treatment options in one location is that it allows your individual needs to be met. Whether you need physical therapy to recover from a sports injury, spinal decompression therapy to alleviate pain caused by a herniated disc, or you need to nurse a hangover with IV therapy. No two cases are the same, just as no two people are the same. Therefore, no two treatments are the same. 

Education on Self-care

Your wellness is an integrative health center’s top priority. It’s not uncommon for patients to be educated on self-care practices, techniques, and wellness strategies. This can be a new stretching routine for someone recovering from a muscle injury, an herbal supplement with beneficial effects, or more rest. Patients are encouraged to take control of their health outside the clinical setting. They learn to care for themselves long after leaving an integrative health center.
