Clearly, our pains and physical discomforts demand attention, hence the old saying “sticking out like a sore thumb.” It is difficult to ignore the obvious when we physically hurt. Common sense dictates that we seek out help to alleviate our discomforts. Holistic healing is not an “alternative” to conventional medical care. At times visiting a medical professional is the best way to address a dis-ease.

Physical illnesses are symptomatic of a greater imbalance that may or may not have a root cause in the physical.

Holistic or “wholistic” healing addresses the whole individual, not just one’s physical aspect where manifested illnesses are most apparent. Holistic healing is not intended to serve as a band-aid or one-time fix. It is an ongoing journey of discovery in search of more answers and ultimately; living better, being healthier, and striving for wholeness.
