Integrative medicine, including traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), is a new concept in clinical practice for the treatment of neurodegenerative and most chronic diseases. However, integrative consensus or a guideline for the management of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) is still lacking. The aim of this paper is to provide a review of experiences in clinical practice from Chinese neurologists and physicians (including TCM doctors) in Shanghai, China, and try to provide a clinical guideline for the treatment of the complex and progressive disease of PD with integrative medicine. We included the following treatments: common Western medication, surgery, TCM decoction and patent medicines, acupuncture and Tui na, Yoga, Tai chi chuan, hyperbaric oxygenation, rehabilitation, and other complementary and alternative medicines for the integrative management of the disease. Neurologists and physicians in Shanghai, China, and all over the world should pay attention to integrative medicine, which may be a good choice of treatment for PD.
