Clinicians need to reflect and have a clearer understanding of the patient as a whole, the patient as a being with a multidimensional body that interacts with the environment while being part of specific systems that modulate responses and possibilities of growth and change. In the past few centuries, philosophy and science led us to fragmenting the body, divorcing it from the mind and from the spirit to make it a subject of study. Our world is now evolving toward a holistic view and we're becoming aware of our inter-related universe. Physics, chemistry, biology, history, anthropology, start to be taught together. The interaction between psychology, neurology, immunology and endocrinology is researched extensively. There is scientific evidence of the multilateral communication among different systems of the body. Geneticists, microbiologists, neurosurgeons, psychotherapists and spiritual gurus claim their interventions attain the best results. Holistic practitioners approaching the wholeness of the human being and honoring the intelligence of the multidimensional body are better equipped to serve the needs of their patients. What's science, what's pseudoscience and what's quackery? Come open to explore systems that have traditionally worked for centuries in other continents. |
