Complimentary Medicine and Alternative Medicine: Science has proven a electrochemical interaction exists between the brain and the body. This Mind-Body connection had been debated for years, and existed at the forefront of battle between traditional medicine and so-called alternative medicine. Well, alternative medicine is slowly being replaced with the term complimentary medicine, and both are yielding to the term integrative medicine. Did anyone notice? In the name of progress traditionalist have reluctantly accepted the reality that they don't have all the answers. Thus, outcomes based medicine was born. Outcome referring to the fact that certain treatments can only be evaluated on the outcomes that they produce. Not the traditional model that places a value on a treatment based on it meeting certain preconceived criteria. As patients and consumers, we all to often realize that these testing criteria have camouflaged agendas solely based on monetary outcomes. As the internet has been born, creating a patient having more questions, the medical community hasn't kept up with answers for well founded questions. Often ignorant of their roots, physicians often forget the Greek derivation for the word physician, means "to teach to heal".
It is this teaching that is paramount to empowering this natural mind-body connection that has more control over the health of the patient than most synthetic alternatives the modern world has offered. The goal of staff at THE NEIGHBORHOOD DOCTOR Ž is to help simplify the complexities of medical rhetoric and illustrations into understandable concepts and pictures. Concepts that help the patient to fully understand the awesomeness of the human body. For we as healthcare professionals are but catalysts for the greatest, most efficient creation ever known. As "teachers" of the body, it is our responsibility to help reconnect the mind body connection.
In this section, in addition to pictures and illustrations, we will formulate explanations that will help you as a patient "see" in your minds eye the construct of your being. How else would it be possible to connect the mind to the body, without first knowing what it is your looking for. One last note, in keeping with our educational philosophy, we understand that people learn by different models. Even more important is our task to provide all our readers with a model that rings true to them. Only then, will the minds eye see that to which it connects. On to your body and on to your health!!!
