A tropical cyclone is a rapidly-rotating storm system characterized by a low-pressure center‚ strong winds‚ and a spiral arrangement of thunderstorms that produce heavy rain.

It can be daunting‚ to say the least‚ to integrate theories into the way that a therapist practices. There is a wealth of information that can be found to help with the integration process.
