ABSTRACT
Worldwide, medicine is practiced using healing models that superficially, appear to be very different from one another when in reality they all have similar logic and comparable objectives. Therefore it is possible to integrate many models of healing into a common system of clinical practice. For western practitioners this means forgetting the fastidious antinomy between biomedicine and complementary and alternative medicine. In this assay we introduce the humanistic bioanthropological medical model (HBAM) that offers the theoretical basis for the practice of contemporary integrative medicine. The most important aspect of the HBAM is the fact that it justifies the proper use of any diagnostic or therapeutic method, as long as it satisfies the condition of progressive evidence-based medicine (EBM) found in relevant research that is conducted using sound biometric psychometric and/or clinimetric methodology that asses clinical outcomes. Finally we explain the practical application of the HBAM emphasizing the concept of illnesses staged in three progressive levels: parasymbiotic, paramorphotic and paranecrotic.
