« Pour une approche intégrée en santé »

(« for an internalized approach in health »)
French and canadian work

From the seventies, you can notice from all around the world a growing interest for alternatives and complementary medicines.
You can as well hear terms like “popular”, “soft”, “natural”, “different” or “parallel” to qualify those medicines.
That’s why, on each corner of the world, decision-makers and professionals of health look more and more into insertion of those practices and, as well, into harmlessness, efficiency, and availability’s questions of all of those other medicines which are more or less supervised by governments.
In front of this reality, those medicines appeared to be necessaries.
For ages, the official medicine didn’t want to recognize it but It appeared urgent to develop a different approach about health.
A new health’s movement was born: “The integrative medicine”.
