A Multidisciplinary Team Includes the Patient | Integrative Care in Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Presented at the Multidisciplinary Approach to Managing IBD and Immune Mediated Diseases in Preconception and Pregnancy conference, held in Toronto on June 8, 2024. MCIBD is a Continuing Health Education initiative for health care providers who treat patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

Montana speaks from the perspective of a patient who has lived with this disease for 18 years, and as an integrative wellness practitioner who regularly treats patients with the same condition. She speaks about the need for an integrative approach in medicine, particularly in IBD where there is a high prevalence of symptoms of anxiety and depression in patients.

Montana also highlights various self-regulation and stress reduction tools that can assist patients. She ends her presentation by touching on the concept of Post-Traumatic Growth, the positive psychological change that can be experienced after a life crisis or traumatic event.
