Dr. JaVar Myatt-Jones: How Does Integrative Medicine Benefit the Patient?


Dr. JaVar Myatt-Jones is a family medicine practitioner and member of the team at Shoals Primary Care, a private practice based in Alabama. A dedicated, well-reviewed family physician in the field for nearly a decade, Dr. Jones looks to provide each patient the individualized, one-on-one care and treatment they need to overcome and prevent illness, as well as to engage in a healthier, longer lifestyle.


As a family physician, Dr. JaVar Myatt-Jones employs a comprehensive approach to patient care, examining, diagnosing and treating the patient as a whole while providing the expert counsel and advice so crucial to health and wellness. Part of Dr. Jones’ approach are elements of integrative medicine, a philosophy that takes a broader, more holistic look at the causes, prevention of disease and the promotion of good health and wellness.

So, what are the advantages of integrative medicine to the patient?

--It addresses the root causes of the illness, rather than just the symptoms. With integrative medicine, the physician examines all factors or elements which may have played a role in the development of the illness, providing the patient the opportunity to eliminate the cause at the source.


--It requires a partnership between physician and patient. In the field of integrative medicine, the patient is a more active participant in their own health, working with the doctor to develop solutions that benefit their health in the long-term.
