What is another word for holistic medicine?
Pronunciation: [həlˈɪstɪk mˈɛdsən] (IPA) 
Holistic medicine, also known as alternative or complementary medicine, encompasses various practices that aim to treat the whole person, including their physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects. Some synonyms for holistic medicine include integrative medicine, natural medicine, functional medicine, mind-body medicine, and complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). Integrative medicine involves combining conventional medicine with other complementary therapies such as acupuncture, yoga, and nutrition. Natural medicine, on the other hand, emphasizes the use of natural remedies, plant-based medicine, and lifestyle modifications. Functional medicine focuses on treating the root cause of a disease rather than just the symptoms. Mind-body medicine incorporates the connection between the mind, body, and spirit in healing. CAM encompasses a range of practices that are not part of conventional medicine, such as herbal remedies, energy therapies, and chiropractic.
