"Our Integrative Therapist, showed us simple breathing techniques that immediately reduced our anxiety and fear. Each time he worked with our family, we seemed to drift to a more peaceful, comfortable place. This is truly a gift and a very special benefit to provide."
What are Integrative Therapies?
At Hospice of Palm Beach County, we serve our patients needs in a variety of ways – not only on the physical level but also on the emotional, spiritual and cognitive levels. This is known as Integrative Therapies or "complementary therapies" which make use of gentle, non-invasive treatments.
Integrative Therapies effectively and safely integrate with traditional medical modalities. They do not replace traditional medical therapies; but they do integrate with the medical care that is provided to our patients, by using safe, non-medical therapies to achieve comfort and a general sense of well-being. We believe that it is possible to experience a sense of wholeness, even when the physical body is experiencing an illness.
