There is an expression that is often used to sum up our life experiences, which is “we are creatures of our environment.” This simply means to me that where we are in life, our culture, personal experiences and upbringing makes us who we are. “The environment influences the person’s health and the person in turn, influences the environment” (Kubsch, 2007).

Holistic Medicine believes in the optimal acquisition of all these aspects of life. This system of health care refutes the separation of mind and body as considered and advocated in the traditional medicine. Holistic Medicine looks at mind, body and spirit as sub-parts, which form the person; a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts. In other words, a whole (person) made up of its parts (mind, body and spirit) is greater in value than the individual sum of these parts. The Holistic Medicine intends to restore health and wellness to the person as a whole, rather than rectifying the diseased part alone.
