by Mansi Shah Integrative Pharmacist

At FWN we believe in combining conventional mainstream Western medicines with holistic treatments to address physical, mental, and spiritual health of a person. 

Through Integrative Medicine services we offer a customized treatment to heal an individual for a long term health. 

The scope of Integrative Medicine is:

A cumulative approach to healing ensures that the overall health of an individual improves radically with lifestyle changes incorporated subtly. 

 

Our approach:


At FWN our approach is methodically designed as stated below:


·       Understanding the individual’s history

Careful integration of conventional and alternative therapies

The main focus of FWN is to carefully curate a treatment plan which seamlessly includes both conventional (Western) and alternative therapies. 

The key is to have prescribed medicines and allow them to treat an individual positively and incorporate holistic methods that catapults the treatment to have a long-term effect.

For example, for back ache, an orthopaedic would prescribe oral medications and combine them with a tailored physiotherapy. 

In addition, dietary modifications would be recommended that helps in an early healing process. 

This customized system of medication is reciprocated well by patients who visit our clinic as they get a treatment plan under one umbrella through our experts. 

 

Why is alternative medicine different from conventional medicine?

The basic difference between alternative medicine and Functional medicine lies in the approach that each school of thought has towards individuals. 

Functional medicine treats only the physical aspect of an individual but alternative medicine considers the body, mind, and spirit as one and treatments are based on that.

One cannot rely completely on alternative medicine to heal themselves but have a healthy combination of conventional and alternative medicines to see a positive result.

By a healthy combination of both, which we term as Integrative medicine, one can achieve long term health benefits.

An outline of some of the types of Alternative medicines that can be combined with Conventional or Western medicine. 

  • Reiki


This is a form of alterative healing with origins in Japan that works effectively for may health conditions listed above. A reiki practitioner hovers his or her hands over the individuals body and use crystals to clear blockages in the energy body. The individual sometimes feels sensations of heat, tingling or a sense of deep sleep/ relaxation during the process.


  • Acupressure and Acupuncture


Acupressure and Acupuncture belong to Traditional Chinese medicine and focus on the Qi energy in the body that flows through about 2000 acupuncture points and meridians.  Acupressure involves massaging the acupressure points and is non-invasive. Acupuncture involves insertion of hair-like needles in acupuncture points along the meridians to stimulate them. 


  • Yoga, tai chi, and qi gong


Yoga is not just sweating through physical exercise, but it is a combination of postures, breathing and control of postures with gradual relaxation of the mind. It has its roots in India but has been widely accepted by western countries paving way for many o the spiritual path. 


  • Tai Chi


Tai chi has its origin in China and consists of steady bodily movements that are smooth and the transition from one posture to another is seamless and is rightfully designated as “meditation in motion”.


  • Qi gong


Qi gong is a Traditional Chinese regime that focuses on optimizing energy in the body through exercises. It focuses on the energy within the body, mind and spirit and helps an individual to improve health and well-being. 


  • Pranayama


Pranayama owes its origin to India and descends from Yogic practices that involves controlling the breath through different styles. The word Prana in Sanskrit means life force similar to that of Qi in Chinese tradition. Though there are many types of Pranayama curated to heal different physical and mental health conditions, the underlying principle remains the same. A pranayama cycle consists of three stages, inhalation, retention, and exhalation.


Having said that, at FWN, we are a team of experienced and skilled professionals who excel in Integrative medical science.

Alternative medicine describes any practice which aims to achieve the healing effects of medicine, but which lacks biological plausibility and is untested or untestable. Complementary medicine (CM), complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), integrated medicine or integrative medicine (IM), and holistic medicine are among many rebrandings of the same phenomenon.
