Our Integrative Approach
Integrative Medicine recognises the interconnectedness of the mind, body and spirit and the need to look at the whole person in his environment to achieve optimal wellbeing.
At Thryve Family Practice, we take the time to listen and explore various aspects of your health. We consider your diet and potential exposure to physical, psychological and environmental stressors. We listen to your concerns. We don’t simply treat symptoms but do our very best to determine and address the root cause of illness. We do this in partnership with you—providing you with knowledge that will empower you to make the necessary changes to achieve your health goals.
Fees
Please note that we are not a bulk billing practice.
Integrative Medicine is slow medicine. It allows the doctor to spend time speaking with you to understand your story and your symptoms and determine the underlying factors contributing to the problems you are experiencing. An integrative health practitioner has undertaken extensive postgraduate training and specialization in their area of interest.
