Ontario Patients for Integrative Medicine is a patient-led group that has come together to help protect the rights of Ontarians to access complementary, alternative and integrative (CAM) healthcare treatments.
We believe that CAM therapies can be combined with tools from conventional medicine to support patients’ health and wellness - particularly for patients suffering from health problems that are not addressed by conventional treatments.
We are a platform to educate, share resources and stories of patients’ experiences with integrative medicine.
“The experience of being treated by an integrative physician helped shift my perspective from focusing on symptoms to understanding the root cause of illness. I was impressed how well these complementary therapies got straight to the root of my problems - having the option to explore alternatives to conventional medical care makes me feel like I am an active participant in my health and healing.”
