Foreword

The demand for the traditional and complementary healing methods is increasing throughout society. This global trend is supported not only by the EU, but also NATO, WHO, WHA and other international organizations recommend studying and developing this area further.
The aim of the congress is to create a pan-European and worldwide database covering all fields of Traditional, Complementary and Integrative Medicine (TCIM) so that anyone – professional or not – can access and use this information regarding non-medical therapies and holistic healing.
To start creating a bridge of mutual trust and respect, to develop the cooperation between the medicine and TCIM, and in particular to create a space for mutual communication is both needed and desired right now. It is necessary to realise that TCIM and medicine are not competitors, both should serve people in the areas where they can be suitably applied in order to improve quality of life, to decrease diseases, to raise healthcare knowledgeability, and last but not least, to decrease healthcare costs.
The Videocongress participants are eminent in their various areas of health care and participated from the USA, India, Great Britain, Germany, Colombia, Austria, and the Czech Republic.
