Synergy

To Synergize- to coordinate to increase the activity of a substance. Synergy’s aim is to expand our conception of medicine and the art of healing by appreciating transcultural and non-traditional conceptions of medicine.

From material to mind, for the surgeon to the psychiatrist, we seek to introduce practical and relevant means to maximize our patients’ healing. For example, what is the Feldenkrais Method? What can it do for the post-op patient? How about the healthy patient? Let’s explore the benefits and limitations of a Tibetan prayer chant, acupuncture, practicing yoga, meditation, or tai chi, etc. As the world grows smaller, what is foreign or obscure becomes more easily accessible. The practice of western medicine
should not be self limiting, but rather adapt to and capitalize on the alternatives available in these unique times. Look for periodic Synergy emails describing upcoming events, or send an email with any questions, comments, or SUGGESTIONS!
