Integrative Medicine at Beaumont

Integrative medicine, sometimes referred to as holistic medicine or complementary medicine, combines conventional and alternative approaches to address the biological, psychological, social and spiritual aspects of health and illness. Our services are available for both adults and children.

Beaumont's Integrative Medicine Program focuses on healing the whole person, with the goal of improving quality of life for patients, their families and others close to them.

We offer clinical massage, acupuncture, naturopathy, guided imagery, reflexology, energy balancing with Reiki, scar therapy, lymphatic wellness massage, Indian Head Massage, hydrotherapy, Cranial Sacral Therapy, neuromuscular therapy, meditation and yoga which combine the best of Eastern traditions while complimenting traditional Western medical practice.

The goal of any successful integrative medicine program is to truly "integrate" allopathic medicine with mind-body-spirit modalities with the ultimate goal of helping patients adapt to traditional medical treatments. Our modalities directly affect the body's physiological healing process while gently awakening the mind-body-spirit connection needed to enhance the healing process.

Beaumont is also one of only a few centers in the United States who offers oncology/hospital massage training. This graduate program, overseen by Beaumont's integrative medicine department is offered through Beaumont's School of Allied Health.

Patients, their caregivers and the hospital staff need both private and group programs therefore we have structured our offerings around their stated needs. Individual treatments (regardless of hospital affiliation) include:

Our Medical Director, Maureen Anderson M.D., is board certified by the American Board of Integrative and Holistic Medicine, with additional education in the functional medicine approach. Her primary training and board certifications are in emergency medicine and general pediatrics. Over the years, Dr. Anderson has cared for patients of every age, presenting with a whole constellation of symptoms and diseases.

The wisdom and experience gained during years as an emergency physician have afforded her a unique and broad perspective, which nicely complements her integrative medicine skills and expertise. Dr. Anderson brings all of this, along with a passion for wellness, and a genuine interest in the total well-being of others to her integrative medicine practice
