Holistic medicine offers a different approach to illness
Holistic medicine offers a different approach to illness.
While there will always be a place for traditional Western medicine in treating major injuries and illnesses, other types of holistic approaches to wellness can unlock the human potential for healing and help individuals avoid the need for care in the future.
Judy Griffin, a certified holistic health coach based out of Rockville Center, New York, recently wrote in the Rockville Center Patch that holistic methods to not seek to usurp the position of standard care. Rather, the two approaches take very different paths toward healing.
"Conventional medicine tends to compartmentalize disease whereas holistic medicine asserts that it is all connected, and advocates for an innovative approach using a variety of healing modalities to uniquely meet the needs of each individual patient," she wrote.
Griffin added that rather than seeking to treat specific symptoms, holistic medicine tries to attack the underlying causes of illness, thereby completely resolving the condition.
These views echo those of Ilchi Lee, the author and philosopher who believes that spiritual healing should methods should take an all-encompassing approach to illness.
