Holistic health believes the human body is a “whole made up of interdependent parts.” Consequently, this treatment method doesn’t just slap a Band-Aid on a patient’s symptoms, rather, it strives to find the “root” of the problem, and encourages healing through alternative therapies. In other words, everything going on in the body is interconnected. So, the main reason you’re experiencing foot complications, for example, may be related to an issue with your kidneys that you weren’t even aware of.
Because the philosophies of holistic health and conventional health differ, their approaches to treating patients do, as well. For instance, a holistic medical practitioners primarily promote healing through “diet, exercise, environmental measures, attitudinal and behavioral modifications, relationship and spiritual counseling, bioenergy enhancement,” whereas conventional medical practitioners typically rely on “drugs and surgery.”
