The defining principles of integrative wellness are:
- The client and consultant are partners in the wellness process.
- All factors that influence well-being and dis-ease are taken into consideration.
- The care addresses the whole person, including body, mind, and spirit in the context of community.
- Providers use all appropriate wellness sciences to facilitate the body’s innate healing response.
- Effective interventions that are natural and less invasive are used whenever possible.
- Because good health is based on good science, integrative wellness is inquiry-driven and open to new models of care.
- Alongside the concept of treatment, the broader concepts of wellness promotion and the prevention of illness are paramount.
- The care is individualized to best address the person’s unique conditions, needs and circumstances.
- Practitioners of integrative wellness exemplify its principles and commit themselves to self-exploration and self-development.
