About the Journal

Advances in Mind Body Medicine  (ISSN: 1470-3556;  electronic ISSN: 1532-1843 ) explores the relationship between mind, body, spirit and health; the human experiences of health, illness and medical care; and the clinical, social, and personal implications of a medicine that acknowledges the whole person.

Advances looks for fresh thinking, vigorous debate, and careful analysis.

Combining a holistic approach to conventional medicine Advances helps serve all types of practitioners and is open to all members and observers of the health and research community.

Timeliness and/or Publication Volume

 Advances publishes one volume per calendar year, which consists of six bimonthly issues. We maintain a publication volume of 45-60 scholarly papers annually. This output reliably represents the full breadth of our scope in integrating alternative therapies with conventional medicine while maintaining rigorous, COPE-aligned peer review standards.
