holistic treatment

Body-mind-spirit approach

Holistic treatment addresses the whole person—body, mind, and spirit—rather than focusing on specific symptoms or isolated conditions.

The approach is common in alternative and complementary medicine, where practitioners consider lifestyle, emotional state, and environment alongside physical health: She sought holistic treatment after conventional medicine failed to help her chronic pain.
