Integrative Medicine in Equine Practice
1Department of Clinical Sciences, Equine Orthopaedic Research Center, Colorado State University, 2350 Gillette Drive, 1621 Campus Delivery, Fort Collins, CO 80523-1621, USA.
Abstract:
Integrative medicine is based on a model of being proactive and promoting health and wellness, rather than being reactive and solely focusing on episodic disease processes. Integrative medicine incorporates a holistic approach to clinical practice that encourages owner involvement with a focus on individualized care, maintained wellness, optimized performance, and disease prevention. Health promotion and preventative care require a different set of clinical skills and perspectives than is typically provided by a traditional veterinary education. Productive interprofessional collaborations are an essential component to the effective delivery of integrative medicine services.
