What's Holistic Medicine and What are the Different Types?

Definitions:

Holistic Medicine- is a term used to describe therapies that attempt to treat the patient as a whole person. That is, instead of treating an illness, as in orthodox allopathy, holistic medicine looks at an individual's over-all physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional well-being before recommending treatment. A practitioner with a holistic approach treats the symptoms of illness as well as looking for the underlying cause of the illness. Holistic medicine also attempts to prevent illness by placing a greater emphasis on optimizing health. The body's systems are seen as interdependent parts of the person's whole being. Its natural state is one of health, and an illness or disease is an imbalance in the body's systems. Holistic therapies tend to emphasize proper nutrition and avoidance of substances—such as chemicals—that pollute the body. Their techniques are non-invasive.

Ayurvedic Medicine- is the indigenous Indian holistic medical system based on achieving physical and mental harmony with nature through herbal medicines and is considered to be the world's oldest healthcare system. Derived from the Sanskrit word Ayurveda, meaning the "science of life”, it is the only Prevention oriented Herbal medical Health care system which gives equal importance for a healthy person to maintain his health and a sickly to get rid of the root cause of a disease rather than the symptoms. Ayurvedic system strives to create harmony between the body, mind, and spirit, maintaining this balance prevents illness and contributes to a healthy long life.

Homeopathic Medicine- the term homeopathy comes from the Greek words homeo, meaning similar, and pathos, meaning suffering or disease. Homeopathy seeks to stimulate the body's ability to heal itself by giving very small doses of highly diluted substances. This therapeutic method was developed by German physician Samuel Christian Hahnemann at the end of the 18th century.

Nutrition- is the balance of good nutrition to help prevent disease and promote health. There are six categories of nutrients that the body needs to acquire from food: protein, carbohydrates, fat, fibers, vitamins and minerals, and water.

Siam Reiki Energy- is made available to you only by the attunement process in a course with a qualified Reiki Master Teacher. But it is easy to learn and to use; the course is fun and interesting with no writing or memorizing necessary, and benefits will begin immediately. Regardless of beliefs, skepticism or fears of inadequacy, students will be channeling energy from higher planes to heal themselves and their friends and family right away, with noticeable results.

Reflexology- is a therapeutic method of relieving pain by stimulating predefined pressure points on the feet and hands. This controlled pressure alleviates the source of the discomfort. In the absence of any particular malady or abnormality, reflexology may be as effective for promoting good health and for preventing illness as it may be for relieving symptoms of stress, injury, and illness. Reflexologists work from maps of predefined pressure points that are located on the hands and feet. These pressure points are reputed to connect directly through the nervous system and affect the bodily organs and glands. The reflexologist manipulates the pressure points according to specific techniques of reflexology therapy. By means of this touching therapy, any part of the body that is the source of pain, illness, or potential debility can be strengthened through the application of pressure at the respective foot or hand location.Reflexology promotes healing by stimulating the nerves in the body and encouraging the flow of blood. In the process, reflexology not only quells the sensation of pain, but relieves the source of the pain as well.
