Research Mission Statement

To develop and implement with outside parties new product development in health care, wellness and quality of life products. 

Scientific studies, nationwide and abroad, continue to show the effectiveness of holistic modalities, and authorities in government and in the biomedical community are showing interest.

In March 2002, the White House Commission on Complementary and Alternative Medicine issued its final report.  In it, the Commission addressed the coordination of research to increase knowledge about Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) treatment modalities and products.  It stated that "establishing a strong scientific base in CAM is necessary for acceptance and inclusion of safe and effective CAM therapies in health care."

Accordingly, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) have funded over 1,200 CAM research projects and have increased funding to $298 million in fiscal year 2008.
