Integrated Medicine? The word integrate derives from the Latin integer, which
means “a whole number” or one. So we see, to
integrate means to make one. The premise of Integrated Medicine is that we
as humans (der. ‘hu’ God and ‘man’) are more
than just the ‘flesh’- we are body, mind and spirit.
Today’s medicine is evolving by drawing on the resources and strengths
of both conventional and complimentary medicine. This process combines the
best of traditional medical systems, such as Ayurveda, Chinese Herbal Medicine,
with the many and varied 'modern' systems, such as naturopathy, osteopathy,
homeopathy with advances made within conventional medicine.
The search for solutions to modern illnesses, particularly infectious
diseases and cancer is demanding increasingly complex, elegant and precise therapies.
We seek to balance and combine to produce the optimal outcome. This holistic
approach is needed to make us ‘One’ again.
Dr. Anthony Soyer’s speciality is as a medical diagnostician and strategist. The
road to self healing is often long-winded. When we are ill we often simply
lack the energy to undertake even basic self care. We are in need of help to
infuse us with clarity, energy and optimism. Dr. Soyer’s role is to assist
you on this healing journey. We will ‘walk’ together for a time;
to explore, to find answers working together and to create a sensible,
informed and workable plan. A plan to empower you and place you back control
of your own life.
Intrinsic to this integrated medical approach is a deep respect for the healing
power within us, the healing power of the plant kingdom and healing power of
nature. The whole thus becomes much greater than the sum of its individual
parts.
