From practice – for practice: KIM for professionals

KIM works from and for the practice of safe and effective integrative medicine:

Specialized working groups focus on disease- and symptom-specific best practices in integrative medicine and develop concrete treatment modules and pathways that are made available to professionals both within and outside the network.
  • Publicly accessible and network-internal training and professional development events are offered.
  • Within the KIM, a pool of experts is available who can be contacted for topic-specific training events and observation opportunities.
  • Treatment recommendations
