#312 Is the integrative process outdated...

About this episode

Send us a text

This week on The Less Stressed Life Podcast, I have my dear friend Jen Fugo on for a friendly debate on the integrative process. We talk about what research says versus what we have experienced in our practices. Jen and I also talk about how our practices have evolved. I think the biggest takeaway here is, whether you are a client or a practitioner, there are multiple ways of doing things. Jen adds, "everyone's journey is going to look different and that's ok."

More episodes with Jen:
#58 Why you shouldn't use coconut oil on your skin
#191 Are Skin Rashes Related to Parasites?

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • What is evidence based medicine?
  • What is the integrative process?
  • Practice: how did we start vs where we are now?
  • Practice versus research
  • How are clients changing?
