Benessair Health
Integrative Medicine
Dr. Shiven Chaudhry partners with you to integrate the six pillar approach to your health.
What is Integrative Medicine?
Integrative medicine is similar to holistic health in the way that it focuses on a person’s health as a whole rather than just a few specific parts. In essence, it is just good medicine. For example, acupuncture may help with anxiety or nerve pain. Healthy touch therapy is known to help patients dealing with a variety of issues like pain or stress.
Even something as simple as getting guidance about how to implement a healthy diet and use specific supplements to improve your overall health can be part of the integrative medicine process.
This practice is backed by evidence, and all treatments have been verified for both safety and effectiveness. It uses changes in lifestyle and a relationship with your medical practitioner to help you find the method of treatment that’s best for your specific concerns.
The Six Pillar Approach
Exercise
Everybody knows exercise is good but intentional physical movement that alleviates illness is a game changer.

Restoring the connection that is most ignored under stress.
Diet
Treating food as medicine.
Herbs and Supplements
Using wisdom of our ancestors to improve health with natural substances.
Western/Allopathic Medicine
Practices and prescriptions grounded in clinical trials.

Out of the box approaches to suit your needs.
