Summary
The mind and body are connected in a myriad of ways that we as healthcare providers still do not fully comprehend. Recent research has demonstrated that there are biological, neurocognitive, psychological, spiritual, and social features of diseases and disorders, and there has been movement within the healthcare field toward the integrative biopsychosocial approach in the provision of healthcare services. Addressing these aspects allows the healthcare provider to tailor treatment to a patient’s unique needs. This chapter covers interventions in the areas of positive neuropsychology/cognitive health, cognitive rehabilitation, and neuroenhancement.
