Integrative geriatrics is a new field of medicine that advocates for a whole-person, patient-centered, primarily non-pharmacological approach to medical care of the elderly. Most current geriatric practices overprescribe medications and procedures and underutilize non-pharmacological, low-cost, high-touch methods. Patients, however, often show reluctance towards these standard practices, as the interventions they rely upon are often invasive. The practice of integrative geriatrics is rooted in lifestyle interventions, such as nutrition, movement therapies, and mind-body and spirituality approaches, that allow patients to have different path to their healthcare-one that utilizes pharmaceuticals and invasive procedures only when safer integrative approaches are not available or not effective.

This first definitive textbook of this new field presents detailed, evidence-based information for all healthcare providers and advocates who work with the geriatric population. It is intended not only for providers in outpatient settings, but also for those who work in nursing homes, assisted and independent living facilities, and senior community centers. In addition, Integrative Geriatric Medicine will provide valuable information for leaders and politicians who are involved with implementing policies and procedures for care of elderly patients looking for safer, less costly, and more patient-centered approaches.

Integrative Medicine for Geriatric and Palliative Care PMID: 28802465 DOI: 10.1016/j.mcna.2017.04.013

Abstract More than 80% of people in the United States who are older than 65 years have 1 or more chronic medical problems, and 50% have 2 or more. The cost of care for the elderly is at least 3 to 4 times that of younger populations and is rapidly growing, mostly because of a lack of preventive approaches and overly medicalized and fragmented care. This article summarizes the most up-to-date evidence for specific integrative modalities for common geriatric conditions, including falls, frailty, osteoporosis, and end-of-life palliative care.

• Abstract Purpose the use of complementary and integrative medicine (CIM) is on the rise among diverse populations of older adults in the USA. CIM is commonly perceived as safer, less expensive, and more culturally acceptable. There is a growing body of evidence to support the use of CIM, especially mind-body therapies, diet and nutritional supplements used for mental disorders of aging.
• Unfortunately, CIM is rarely included in the healthcare systems on the large scale with the exception of a few modalities (i.e., acupuncture and chiropractic care) due to the lack of reimbursement by the US medical insurances, and remain unaffordable for many older adults living on a limited income[4]. Billions of dollars are spent out of pocket per year on a poorly regulated large health-promotion industry with unvalidated health outcome claims and with limited evidence and can be confusing to navigate for the consumers, and especially for older adults. In this review, we focus on the most popular CIM modalities with the strongest evidence, including diet and mind-body therapies used for commonly occurring mood, anxiety, and cognitive disorders.
• Although the terms, "alternative," "complementary," and "integrative" are often used interchangeably, the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) defines these terms as follows: "alternative" medicine refers to a set of practices of medicine (e.g., traditional, oriental, mind-body, etc.) without sufficient evidence base that is used in place of conventional medicine, whereas "complementary" medicine refers to non-mainstream practice that is used together with conventional medicine. "Integrative" medicine refers to the use of conventional and complementary approaches in a coordinated way targeting specific disorders or underlying neurobiological processes (e.g., inflammation). CIM emphasizes a holistic, patient-focused approach to healthcare and wellness targeting the whole person rather than one organ system. Historically, these practices are oriented toward harmonious rebalancing of mind, body, and spirit. The NCCIH identified three categories for complementary and integrative approaches: (1) natural products (herbal medicines, botanicals, vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and other dietary supplements); (2) mind and body practices (massage therapy, meditation, yoga, acupuncture, chiropractic/osteopathic manipulation, hypnotherapy, tai chi, qigong, healing touch, and relaxation exercises); (3) other complementary approaches (indigenous healing practices, Chinese medicine, Ayurvedic medicine, homeopathy, and naturopathy).
