For those who are looking for a holistic health practitioner in Maine . . .

The Maine Directory of Complementary & Alternative Health Practitioners

Why choose complementary and alternative therapies? Holistic therapies are known to affect a person not just on a physical level, but emotionally, mentally and spiritually as well, leading to improved self awareness and a greater sense of well being. Therapeutic bodywork can supplement your personal health care without drugs or invasive therapy and can even be considered preventive medicine. Integrative mind-body therapies can relieve stress, alleviate a particular pain or physical problem, expand the level of functioning, or create a sense of interconnectedness that gives harmony and balance to your life. Energy medicine can integrate all of your fragmented parts into a unified whole that allows you to live life to its fullest, with optimum health and consciousness. Many forms of holistic therapy are already available in the towns of Maine. This new directory of complementary health practitioners, focusing primarily on integrative bodywork, provides information on 421 practitioners working in 192 different bodywork modalities (from Acupressure to Zero Balancing) in 131 towns in Maine. Descriptions of the modalities are included, along with information on energy medicine, other types of therapies available, massage or bodywork schools, and related associations or organizations. The many different modalities discussed within this directory focus on treating the source of dysfunction within every body system, whether it be lymphatic, circulatory, respiratory, nervous, glandular, digestive, skeletal, muscular or energetic. Preventing dysfunction from progressing into disease is an important principle of holistic health, and bodywork can serve in this way by taking care of a problem as soon as it arises so that its effects won’t become entrenched in the body. There seems to be no end to possibilities of healing with complementary and alternative medicine, and we’re eager to spread that news. May we all have the opportunity to achieve perfect health and unlimited potential.
