Mind Body Assessments

You may be referred to the Atlantic Integrative Medicine’s Mind Body Center for an assessment by your doctor or you can make an appointment without a referral. We have several initial assessments which will help us determine which services and therapies are appropriate for you.

Holistic Medical Assessment – You will meet with an integrative physician who is trained both in allopathic medicine (“Western medicine”) and complementary modalities. Your concerns and medical conditions are assessed from a holistic point of view and recommendations for dietary intervention, supplements and herbs, exercise, stress reduction and other complementary modalities are made. The physician may refer you to other holistic practitioners and consult with your health care providers as needed.

Holistic Wellness Assessment – This session surveys the mind body health of the individual using a detailed questionnaire that covers medical and social background, strengths and weaknesses, nutritional and spiritual habits, and stressors and coping techniques. A certified holistic nurse reviews your answers and partners with you to develop a care plan tailored to your needs. The care plan may include complementary modalities, home practice or behavioral changes.

Many of the Center’s individual services are also available without a prior assessment.
