Holistic medicine is a healing philosophy that views the patient as a whole person – body, mind, and spirit – not just a disease or a collection of symptoms. Practitioners may address a client’s emotional and spiritual dimensions as well as the hereditary, nutritional, environmental, and lifestyle factors that can contribute to an illness. Note: in my opinion, “vibrational medicine” and “holistic medicine” are the same; the difference is simply linguistics – those using the term “vibrational medicine” are likely more versed in the scientific basis of this modality, whereas a native healer in some remote area, while utilizing the reality of the science, may not be cognizant of the terminology or the research.
