Our community offers both top notch medical care and a vast array of preventive and natural medicine. We are also leaders in “integrative health care” where conventional medicine and alternative practices come together for whole person care.

The Consortium of Academic Health Centers for Integrative Medicine defines this practice as “medicine that confirms the importance of the practitioner/patient relationship; focuses on the whole person; is evidence-based; and uses all appropriate modalities, health care professionals and disciplines to achieve health and healing.”

Desert Health was created to promote this union and the Valley’s many medical facilities, wellness clinics, modalities and practitioners who keep us healthy and help us heal.

Our goals are to educate and inform, recognize accomplishments, celebrate community, and encourage readers to be their own health advocates – while living life to the fullest!

We are a complimentary paper for locals and visitors alike found throughout the Coachella Valley.

Thank you for reading. We wish you the best of health!
