ABOUT UNIFIED HEALTH

Especially for holistic health practitioners, Unified Health is a free online journal committed to wholeness in all domains of medicine. We provide inspiring, clinically relevant information giving practitioners powerful tools to better serve their patients in a way that reflects a commitment to the physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing of the human community they serve.

Launched in 2005, Unified Health: A Clinician's Forum was originally a quarterly, print-only trade journal distributed in print to over 7,000 health care professionals. It is now available free, online to practitioners and patients alike. Clinicians across a diverse spectrum of medicine contribute original articles, clinical approach essays, practice building strategies, research reviews and insights on the application of various modalities in integrative medicine.
