This report aims to present an interprofessional work carried out at the Federal University of the South of Bahia, which provides assistance to students, aiming to minimize the effects of adaptation to the university environment, contributing to their affiliation, and reducing evasion. The attendance with Integrative and Complementary Practices in Health came from the installation of a Laboratory by a professor in the area of Health, where 213 consultations were performed in the first half of 2018. The main complaints were: anxiety, emotional lability, lumbar and neck pain, insomnia, states of discouragement, headache and lack of concentration. There was a significant improvement in clinical settings in the first sessions, without the need for drug intervention. It was concluded that this work is successful and pioneer in what concerns the transdisciplinary and interprofessional approach, in the prevention of the aggravation of the anxiety, minimizing unnecessary medicalization, being important the diffusion and greater theoretical depth, being able to serve as a model for other services.
