The University of Maryland Center for Integrative Medicine is among a prestigious group of national health centers featured in the Bravewell Collaborative's new report Integrative Medicine in America: How Integrative Medicine is Being Practiced in Clinical Centers Across the United States, a study of patient populations and health conditions most commonly treated with integrative strategies.
In the survey of U.S. integrative medicine centers, 75 percent reported success using integrative practices such as traditional Chinese medicine/acupuncture, meditation and supplements to treat chronic pain. More than 50 percent of the centers reported positive results using integrative therapies for gastrointestinal conditions, depression and anxiety, cancer and chronic stress.
