GlossaryHolistic Medicine (Holistic Treatment)

approach to health considering body, mind, and spirit

Holistic Medicine is an approach to healthcare that considers the whole person—body, mind, spirit, and emotions—in the quest for optimal health and wellness. Rather than focusing solely on treating specific symptoms or illnesses, holistic medicine aims to address the root causes of health issues and promote overall well-being through a combination of conventional medical treatments and alternative therapies such as acupuncture, nutrition, and stress management.
