Holistic Health Treats The Whole Person

Have you ever visited your doctor with a problem and walked out, after waiting for hours, seeing a doctor for a mere few minutes because there are many more patients scheduled than can be fit into a day, being given a prescription for something you may or may not need, and feeling generally abused... like they just wanted you out of there as quick as possible? Unfortunately, that is the way many physicians practice medicine today. In contrast, Holistic medicine is based on the treatment of the whole (holos, a Greek word meaning all, entire, total) person. It emphasizes not only the physical elements of the patient but also takes into account the emotional, mental, and spiritual elements. Most health care, often does not address the underlying root causes of disease. You are given a prescription for something that will mask your symptoms, be it heartburn, migraines, high blood pressure, panic attacks, etc. As the disease itself remains unresolved, symptoms repeatedly arise which are again palliated or suppressed, creating a vicious cycle. Holistic practices may include Classical Homeopathy Acupuncture, Chinese Herbal Medicine, Clinical Nutrition and Craniosacral Therapy, all of which Jonathan Breslow is certified in. He is committed to relieve suffering in his patients and cure the underlying causes of disease by drawing on natural medical therapies.
