eBook Spotlight: "Integrative Headache Medicine"

Did you know Bastyr Libraries has over 300 eBooks? Check out this eBook edited by Lauren R. Natbony and Mark Green and browse the rest of our eBooks on the library catalog page!

Summary: "In all, the book details how multidisciplinary management and the combination of conventional and complementary medical services - integrative medicine - leads to superior patient outcomes: improved patient satisfaction, reduced stress, and more readily treatable, less serious illness. State-of-the-art and developed by experts in their fields, these 12 chapters present research and analysis of a wide range of non-pharmacologic interventions in headache care, seeking to inspire clinicians to formulate personalized headache treatment plans, and to work together by integrating their expertise in a multidisciplinary context to address patients' unique conditions, needs, circumstances, and treatment."
