Integrative Medicine offers time proven relaxing and healing techniques along with the very latest medical technology!

Integrative Medicine

Recent surveys show that more than half of all Americans use some form of complementary or alternative therapy to enhance their healing or maintain their health.

Research has shown that relaxation techniques such as Acupuncture, ART for Healing, Guided Imagery, Imagery for Surgery, Massage Therapy, Therapeutic Touch, and Reiki help to decrease anxiety, strengthen the immune system, diminish pain, and accelerate healing.

While we often focus on the physical aspects of healing, we are learning that healing incorporates the mind, body, and spirit.

When mind-body techniques are used, benefits are often experienced on all three levels and there is often a greater sense of participating in the healing process.

Going Home Wearing an Orange Bracelet

orange bracelet

As part of Hartford HealthCare’s commitment to maternal health, all maternity patients are discharged wearing an orange bracelet that says “I GAVE BIRTH.” Patients are encouraged to wear the bracelet for the first eight weeks after delivery, when the risk for life-threatening complications is highest. This helps healthcare professionals recognize and properly assess symptoms.

Improving the lives of patients during the perinatal phase and eliminating disparities in maternal morbidity & mortality, by using an equity perspective, to support birthing individuals within & around Hartford HealthCare.
