Integrative Medicine: On the Forefront of Therapeutic Yoga

Integrative Medicine (IM) is healing-oriented medicine that takes into account the whole person, including all aspects of lifestyle. It emphasizes the therapeutic relationship between practitioner and patient, is informed by evidence, and makes use of all appropriate therapies, including yoga, acupuncture and massage therapy. IM often is seen as the melding of the best of traditional western medicine with complimentary treatments for mind, body and spirit.

Marti Ewing uses principles of Integrative Medicine with graduating Nurses at Baylor

Marti teaches self care to a group of nurses graduating from Baylor College of Medicine.

Marti developed a Relaxation Class, as well as a Pink Ribbon Class in conjunction with the Baylor Breast Center, and last year developed a popular Stress Reduction Workshop for nursing staff in conjunction with CHI St. Luke’s Division Vice President of Nursing Practice, Education & Research.

Outside of her consulting at the hospital, Marti works with a variety of other health care providers who have patients in need of support in recovery, health management and stress reduction. She conducts presentations and trainings for health providers, caregivers and support groups wanting to learn more about self-care and the healing properties of yoga. Her work over the last few years has expanded to respond to requests from corporate wellness programs hoping to support employees on their own journey to healthier living.

Marti works with individuals in hospital and institutional settings, with patients in their homes and with people seeking private healing sessions in her studio. She also is available to work with patients remotely, if that better fits their needs.

In 2018, she presented at the Texas Yoga Conference, focused on special trainings for cancer care and heart/cardio vascular health, sponsored by the University of Texas’ MD Anderson Cancer Center.
