Holistic Healthcare

2.  One type of alternative medicine
 Based on healing that considers the whole
person
 Focused on each person developing a sound
body, mind, spirit, and emotions

3.  Unconditional love and support are the most
powerful healers.
 The patient is ultimately responsible for his or
her own health and well-being.
 Everyone has innate healing powers.
 The patient is a person, not a disease.

4.  Healing takes a team approach involving the
patient and doctor.
 Treatment includes fixing the cause of the
condition, not just alleviating the symptoms.
 All aspects of a person's life should be
addressed by using a variety of healthcare
practices.

6.  Holistic medical practitioners believe that if people have physical,
emotional, or spiritual imbalances, this can negatively affect
overall health.
 Some practitioners of holistic medicine treat patients by using
alternative therapies exclusively.
 Some practitioners of conventional medicine take into account all
of their patient’s circumstances in giving treatment, and this may
include complementary and alternative therapies.
 The therapies that are recommended by doctors may include
drugs and lifestyle changes to fix the cause of their patient’s
problem.
