Although I've just extensively edited this page, I've realised that this topic is covered much better in the alternative medicine article, which this article has usually redirected to. I propose returning this redirect. Verbal chat 10:21, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
I have written some information on integrative medicine. I do agree that alternative medicine is a major part of integrative medicine but only a subset. I will add more info to the page when I have time. Jenyee28 ( talk) 21:07, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
18 months later, is this topic really different enough from Alternative medicine to justify two articles? At the very least, there will need to be a great deal of overlap between the articles. The existence and placement of any distinction is so finely dependent on the sources chosen that I find the single article solution superior. I could see an argument for the evolution of the use of the term integrative medicine, but the term is used in so many ways by so many people that it seems that anything beyond a simple dictionary definition would mislead more than inform. - 2/0 ( cont.) 13:00, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
