Mind/body therapies refer to the mind's ability to influence our immune, hormonal and neurological systems. Mind/body therapies use the power of thought to help the healing process.

An easy way to get a grasp on the mind/body connection is to think of the placebo effect. With the placebo effect, a person taking a pill with no active ingredients in it who thinks there are active ingredients, experiences the same physical effects as if the pill actually did contain active ingredients.

Mind/body therapies include the following:

  • Art therapy
  • Biofeedback
  • Dance/movement therapy
  • Hypnosis
  • Imagery
  • Meditation
  • Music therapy
  • Prayer
  • Psychotherapy
  • Support groups
  • Yoga
