Review

"For practitioner seeking a basic introduction to integrative medicine as it relates to women, this is a good starting guide. The book covers lifestyle contributors to health and wellness (nutrition, dietary supplements, physical activity, mind-body therapies), world systems and philosophies related to disease (traditional Chinese medicine, energy medicine, homeopathy), reproductive health (premenstrual syndrome, the role of stress in infertility,
chronic pelvic pain, menopause), and common illnesses in women (urinary tract infections, headaches, anxiety, eating disorders, osteoporosis). Concise sectioning of information in the chapters and good tables are the highlight of this book. There is much innovative information as it relates to the mind-body connection in health."--Doody's

"Integrative Women's Health resonates with warmth, care, and empathy, from the foreword by series editor Andrew Weil, MD, to the editors' introductory chapter and epilogue, and throughout the contributing authors' chapters...Written by women, primarily for women, this book provides a powerful and practical set of guidelines for an integrative, celebratory, whole person approach to women's health." --HerbalGram
