This therapy is built upon the belief that the mind can be made to Affect bodily functions and symptoms. There are various techniques that can be used to enhance the mind’s capacity. Mind-body intervention started as an alternative and complimentary system but some of its techniques are mainstream now; these include patient support groups and cognitive-behavioral therapy. Meditation, prayer, art, music, and dance are still considered complimentary techniques but there efficacy is supported by anecdotal evidence. Mind-body therapy takes into consideration the interactions between mind and body and their effect on behavior. This therapy works on the tenet that mental, social, and spiritual factors Affect a person’s health.
