For many, participating in the development of institutionalizing integrative medicine has been a passion for years – for some, decades. They have battled local authorities and withstood the indignities of having their work denigrated by peers who practiced conventional medicine and internalized the disenchantment that has become prolific in the profession. NuraHealth has deep respect for both their journey and their knowledge and the design of Nura's business model reflects countless hours of listening to them.It is not just that NuraHealth has assembled a deep pool of skilled professionals in key knowledge domains, it is that the people assembled have a personal commitment to seeing that Integrative Medicine has its rightful place at the healthcare table. The passion of that commitment, and the basis for it, is Nura's culture.
