What is Wellness Care?
Dr. Robbins is a proponent of Wellness Care, which combines the best ideas and practices of alternative and conventional medicine in order to maximize the body's natural healing mechanisms. It's not simply about teaching doctors to prescribe herbs or other natural remedies in place of medications.

Rather, Wellness Care has a much larger perspective and mission:
:: It seeks to restore the focus of medicine on health and healing rather than disease and treatment.
:: It views patients as whole persons -- minds and spirits as well as physical bodies -- and considers these other dimensions in the diagnosis and treatment of illness.
:: It emphasizes a true partnership between patient and practitioner that addresses healing on all levels -- especially lifestyle factors such as diet, exercise, stress, quality of sleep, relationships, and work, as well as the appropriate use of dietary supplements, herbs, and other forms of treatment.
:: It considers simple, inexpensive, low-tech treatment methods especially when conventional approaches are relatively ineffective or potentially harmful.
