holistic remedies
Alternative healing approaches
Holistic remedies are treatments that address the whole person—body, mind, and spirit—rather than targeting specific symptoms or diseases.
The term typically refers to alternative or complementary approaches like herbal medicine, acupuncture, or meditation: She turned to holistic remedies after conventional treatments failed.
The phrase often carries connotations of natural, non-pharmaceutical intervention, though skeptics use it dismissively for unproven therapies.
