Holistic medicine

Holistic medicine is an alternative medicine that recognises the body's ability to repair itself, and finds ways to help it when it is having trouble. Instead of providing drugs, which often cause side effects, as they do not agree with the body, holistic medicine focuses on complementary ways of repairing the body through focus on the mind as well. Holistic medicine recognizes that although the body can heal itself, for some reason it is having trouble doing so. Therefore it will encourage it, through body and mind, to go about its natural process through the use of natural medicines. Holistic medicines include acupuncture, aromatherapy, colour healing, traditional Chinese medicine, massage and reflexology. These are becoming an increasingly popular alternative to the prescribed drugs, to work with the new ideas of a healthier lifestyle, which includes organic food and exercise such as yoga and pilates.
