Integrative Medicine
Aspen Integrative Medicine works hard to combine the best parts of conventional and naturopathic medicine to produce remarkable results for your health and wellness. Our medical team seamlessly blends together naturopathic medicine, functional medicine, physical medicine, neurofeedback, and a host of other modalities to provide a superior level of care. Our providers frequently collaborate on patient cases and share ideas to maximize treatment outcomes. We firmly believe our integrative medicine approach is the future of medicine. It is our mission to combine traditional medicine, conventional “allopathic” medicine, and cutting-edge therapies to create a higher “standard of care.” We will forever be looking for more innovative ways to better serve you and your health care needs.
What is integrative medicine?
Integrative Medicine is a healing-oriented medicine that takes account of the whole person, including all aspects of lifestyle and environmental influences. It emphasizes the therapeutic relationship between practitioner and patient, is informed by evidence, and makes use of all appropriate therapies including conventional, naturopathic, and functional medicine modalities. Conventional medicine is probably what you think of first when it comes to medical care. It frequently includes your primary care physician and/or specialists who prescribe pharmaceuticals and surgery. These forms of treatment are quite useful in certain situations, but too often just suppress your symptoms instead of addressing the root cause(s). Integrative medicine offers a truly holistic approach and calls upon a wide variety of treatment modalities to help you recover as quickly, safely, and fully as possible.
