3 About our Corporate Integrative Medicine Program Centers for Integrative Medicine and Healing(CIMH), will use our expert approach to health, Disease Intervention, wellness and Oriental Medicine to conduct a comprehensive healthy living statistical assessment screening of each employee at your organization who becomes involved in our Corporate Integrative Medicine Program. CIMH will measure and report all health vitals collected to determine what corrective care treatments are needed to improve each employees overall health, well-being, productivity and functionality. All employee information is held in strict confidentiality and all procedures comply with HIPPA guidelines. After our Doctors conduct this health assessment, CIMH is able to effectively categorize employees into 3 groups and develop custom all natural healthy living plans, treatment plans and corrective care plans that are specifically related to the employees personal health assessment, health concerns, health issues and health goals. We then custom tailor these plans to appropriately fit the employees lifestyle to improve overall health, vitality and functionality in and out of the workplace. These rewarding health and lifestyle benefits your employees receive from this program motivate reduced healthcare costs, improve employee productivity, decrease sick days taken, lower levels of stress and anxiety, improve employee functionality, and improve the social structure within your workplace. CIMH has one core focus- Significantly increase the health, well-being, prevention and functionality of your employees in and out of the workplace, allowing them to lead healthier, happier lives and enabling you to offer a healthier, happier less stressful work environment for all. Lower Healthcare Costs Less Employee Stress & Anxiety in the Workplace Improved Employee Functionality Improved Employee Productivity Decrease in Sick Days Taken Improved Social Structure within the Workplace Improvement in Cost/Time Efficiencies for HR Staff Healthier & Happier Employees Lower Levels of Management Intervention

4 Our Process CIMH Doctors conduct a 20 minute comprehensive health screening of each employee at a designated screening station at your location. CIMH Doctors then compile the physical data collected and group your employees into 3 classifications. After all statistical health screening data is compiled, Centers for Integrative Medicine and Healing then presents the findings along with an in depth and detailed corrective care action plan that explains how CIMH will improve each employee group classification. We then map out the treatment strategies that will be used on these groups to greatly improve their health, stress, anxiety, illness/injury/pain, well-being and functionality that ultimately leads to optimum health efficiencies and work environment improvements for your organization to benefit from.

6 We approach health in a scientific, time tested, measurable manner not the hip-hip hooray one. Why We Are The Best Most wellness programs offer dietary or exercise advice only. This can statistically only help 20-25% of employees and is a cookie cutter approach. Our programs are scientific, custom tailored and measurable. We make customized, individual health plans with measurable and expected outcomes. Our treatments are not only far more effective but also significantly less costly overall than Western Medical treatments. 97% We are absolutely committed to get you to your optimal health and functionality level. 97% Treatment Response Rate.

7 Some Basic National Statistics On Healthcare America spends over $9,000 per capita per year on healthcare. That s over $3.2 trillion spent in 2014 which is over 17% of the worlds largest GDP. China spends less than $500 per capita per year and less than 4% of its GDP. 70% of healthcare costs in America is carried by private companies, over $2 trillion, which makes America the only country in the world plagued by corporate benefit burden. Ford, Chrysler, and GM almost went under in 2008 partly due to this burden % of Americans sleep poorly causing billions of dollars in losses in business. 66% of Americans are overweight and 35% are obese which costs health care billions of dollars in losses. Americans eat one of the most toxic ridden diets in the world which, according to some studies, accounts for 50-60% of chronic disease.

8 Prevention is Important The math is simple. If you do not prevent ( an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure ) and only treat the symptoms you will spend over $9,000 per capita per year as we do in the US. The American Healthcare System spends 4 times more than the Japanese, 3 times more than the Swiss, and 3 times more than the French with worse results. Based on our own experience and 147 scientific papers written on this issue, we believe that by applying prevention and root cause oriented medicine we can save an average employer about 20% in medical expenses, sick days, Worker s Compensation claims, and increase productivity by 10-15%.
