Modern medicine has come a long way and achieved impressive results. At the same time, one cannot help but notice a certain crisis of official medicine: the task of saving human life is increasingly successful, while the elimination of unpleasant symptoms is not so simple. In addition, there are unfavourable side effects of medicines. Many problems of modern medicine come primarily from a mechanistic understanding of the human body, based on the principles of Newtonian mechanics. Integrative approach is a direction in medicine, which is based on the idea of man in the unity of biological, psychological, and social manifestations. Integrative medicine is a project of a new type of medical knowledge and practice, which aims to unite the positive aspects of different medical systems and schools, not just mechanically connecting them with each other, but offering a new theoretical basis from which the positive aspects of different medical systems and practices could be derived as their own particular cases. Our body is a single system in which everything is interconnected and interdependent. Disturbances in one system or at one level affect all others, and any intervention must be done in an integrated manner. An essential part of integrative medicine is the interaction between patient and physician and ideally the physician should view the patient as a unity of body, mind and spirit and address all these aspects of human nature.
