Pediatric integrative medicine (PIM), blending complementary therapies with conventional medicine, offers an interdisciplinary and comprehensive approach to addressing these complex challenges. Despite growing demand for PIM, lifestyle-oriented care, and multimodal biopsychosocial interventions, few studies have described the clinical delivery of PIM within a large academic medical center.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objectives<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>To describe the demographics, clinical characteristics, and interventions utilized within a physician-led, PIM clinic at a large, pediatric academic medical center.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A retrospective review was conducted of 2677 outpatient PIM physician office visits (March 2020\u2013September 2023) among 657 pediatric patients (birth-25 years).

Key intervention recommendations included dietary changes (61.8%), myofascial self-care interventions (33.8%), massage therapy (21.0%), acupuncture (19.2%), pacing (18.4%), sleep hygiene (18.3%), and exercise (18.1%).
