Holistic Medicine:
Making your doctor your partner for life.
Is
Holistic Medicine a long ago, forgotten practice or
the practice of the future? Think back to a simpler
time and visualize a small town where the local doctor
was the town's best friend. He would know your entire
family on a first name basis and remember when you acquired
your first cold. Holistic Medicine is based on a partnership
between the doctor and the patient. This partnership
addresses the care of a patient's body, mind, and spirit.
Together, the patient and the doctor will discuss and
choose the best possible course of treatment. And like
the small town's best friend, a doctor practicing Holistic
Medicine gets to know their patients very well, acting
at times as a counselor. It is the belief in Holistic
Medicine that patient's need to achieve balance and
well being in all aspects of life: physical, nutritional,
environmental, emotional, social, and spiritual. Holistic
Medicine practices conventional medicine, as well as
complementary therapies with prevention of disease its
primary focus.
When treating disease, a practitioner of Holistic Medicine
investigates the root cause and then addresses those
needs. This may mean that the patient may have to make
certain lifestyle changes. It is also the view of Holistic
Medicine that the patients are ultimately responsible
for their own well being. Somebody who is consumed with
stress may have to make lifestyle changes to get well.
As stated on MayoClinic.com:
Too much stress may appear in the form of illness,
infertility or fatigue. Chronic stress can damage your overall health, including:
Your
immune system.
Stress can suppress your immune system, making
you more susceptible to viral infections,
such as influenza, and bacterial infections,
such as tuberculosis.
Your
cardiovascular health. Stress causes a
more rapid heartbeat and may bring on chest
pain (angina) and irregular heart rhythms
(arrhythmia). Stress may even lead to a heart
attack or stroke.
Because Holistic Medicine uses Complementary Therapies the practitioner may make
specific suggestions on how to alleviate the root cause of the stress, they may suggest
a support group, a diet, or a nutritional supplement like Växa International's

during times of stress.
