Mind Body Therapies

         The concept that the mind is important in health and illness dates back to ancient times. In the West, the notion that mind and body were separate began during the Renaissance and Enlightenment eras. Increasing numbers of scientific and technological discoveries furthered this split and led to an emphasis on disease-based models, pathological changes, and external cures. This has influenced all streams of Medicine in the world. The role of mind and belief in health and illness began to re-enter Western health care in the 20th century, led by discoveries about pain control via the placebo effect and effects of stress on health. Further, therapies such as bodywork, Yoga, Qigong are becoming popular in the mainstream medicine, giving rise to a whole new modality of MInd Body Medicine.
