In MAGICAL HEALTH: A Physician's Guide to Mind-Body Healing Through the Tertium Mederi, Canadian physician Dr. Kalpit Agnihotri M.D. introduces a provocative idea: that alongside drugs and surgery exists a third mode of healing – one rooted in the remarkable interaction between mind, body, belief, meaning, and human potential.Drawing on nearly a decade of clinical experience across family medicine, cognitive-behavioral therapy, sport and exercise medicine, and mind-body medicine, Dr. Agnihotri explores what he calls the Tertium Mederi, Latin for "the third healer."Part science, part philosophy, and part journey into the frontiers of human healing, this book asks readers to reconsider many of their assumptions about health and recovery.Whether you are a patient searching for answers, a healthcare professional seeking a broader perspective, or simply someone fascinated by the untapped capacities of the human mind, this book offers a compelling new framework for understanding health.
