What is integrative and transversal medicine?
Integrative and cross-disciplinary medicine incorporates a therapeutic model that combines the qualities of conventional medicine with complementary treatments based on scientific evidence. Its objective is not only to alleviate symptoms, but also to treat the patient holistically, considering the physical, emotional, and environmental factors that influence their health. Integrative and cross-disciplinary medicine addresses the patient from all angles.
Rather than focusing exclusively on the disease, integrative medicine seeks to find the root cause of the problem, promoting prevention and long-term well-being. It may seem very theoretical, but this multidisciplinary approach, which uses both advanced medical treatments and complementary therapies, ensures more accurate and personalised care for each patient. This perspective has a positive impact on their current state of health and its maintenance.
The 5Ps in medicine or the evolution of healthcare
Within integrative medicine, we find 5P Medicine, which is based on five fundamental principles from which people are treated.
The combination of integrative medicine with 5P medicine allows for a more precise and personalised approach to healthcare, with a cross-disciplinary format. The result is a healthier and more active life for longer. This type of medicine is based on 5 key approaches:
- Personalised: Each treatment is designed according to the patient's genetic and epigenetic characteristics and lifestyle habits. In this way, each approach is unique and exclusive to each individual.
- Predictive: Advanced tools such as artificial intelligence, biochemical and genetic analysis, and other complementary tests are used to anticipate indirect signs that may alert us to the present or future onset of various diseases. Obtaining this information is crucial and allows us to act sooner and achieve better results.
- Preventive: We like to focus on preventing the onset of disease by introducing changes in diet, sleep, exercise and stress management, among other fundamental pillars. The consolidation of healthy lifestyle habits makes it possible to prevent or delay the onset of incipient metabolic disorders or established diseases, improving the patient's quality of life in the present and in the future.
- Participatory: The patient plays an active role in decision-making, in collaboration with a cross-disciplinary team of professionals. It is the individual who must empower themselves and take responsibility for their health, using the tools provided by our team, who will accompany them throughout the transformation process. Informed and responsible.
- Precise: We use both advanced medical treatments and complementary therapies, ensuring more accurate and personalised care for each patient.

What are the principles of Integrative Medicine?

- Use of evidence-based therapies: Although integrative medicine incorporates complementary therapies, only those with scientific backing and proven benefits are used.
- Prevention and promotion of wellbeing: It is not just about curing illnesses, but about strengthening overall health and preventing future problems through changes in diet, exercise, sleep, breathing and stress management.
- Multidisciplinary collaboration: Doctors from different specialities—neurosurgery, neurophysiology and neuroscience, rheumatology, gynaecology, regenerative medicine, aesthetic medicine, etc.—nutritionists, psychologists and other specialists work together to address the patient's health from different angles to achieve a comprehensive, 360-degree treatment.
