Today, the doctor habitually builds his treatment tactics not on healing the body, but on eliminating the symptom complex, that is, the phenomenon by which the disease manifests itself within the framework of sensations and external manifestations. Our body is a holistic, self-regulating - holistic! - system.

Adapting to excessive influences, it can outwardly give out many symptoms: pain, fever, blood pressure, cholesterol levels, skin rash, swelling, etc. It is the academic physician, who is far from the fundamental principles of purpose and integrity, that enters into single combat with these symptoms. Doctor who doesn't understand complete system human body, will strive, by any means, to normalize the detected deviations. If the doctor in his treatment tactics ignores the concept of holism, then one cannot exclude and negative consequences, sometimes deeper and more destructive, even after successful therapy.

Therefore, based on the principles of the integrity of the body and all the changes occurring in it and interrelated changes, specialists holistic directions doctors believe that:

• it is pointless to suppress a symptom that indicates a problem. Medical elimination a symptom is not an indication of a cure. Moreover, it can provoke even more serious violations functioning of the whole organism.
• symptomatic therapy, which guarantees the normalization of a physiological or biochemical parameter, creates only the illusion of apparent well-being. Such therapy misleads the doctor, who regards the elimination of the symptom as an absolute success of the treatment. For a doctor who does not understand the language of symptoms and is deprived of a holistic vision of the problem, medical normalization of the deviations that have arisen often becomes an end in itself.
• the correct strategy would be to consider individual symptoms as SOS signals that require close attention, but not elimination, since the symptoms will disappear on their own after the cause is found and eliminated through actions aimed at increasing the lost level of health.

Holistic medicine - medicine of the future

"How can one begin to treat the eye without thinking about the head,
or treat the head without thinking about the whole body,
so you can not heal the body without healing the soul.
Socrates

In recent decades, various areas of alternative medicine are gaining more and more popularity - all over the world, people suffering from various diseases are increasingly turning to non-traditional remedies. The World Health Organization (WHO) has long recognized the methods of alternative medicine, including in its official list of homeopathy, osteopathy, bioresonance therapy, oriental medicine and other directions.
One of the most famous and popular destinations Not traditional medicine today is holistic medicine, which considers the human body as a whole, taking into account the relationship of some human organs with other body systems.

The development of holistic medicine:
The concepts of "holism" and "holistic" come from the Greek word "holon", meaning "wholeness", "integrity". Accordingly, the whole world and all living things from the point of view of holism are a single whole. The concept of this movement is that a person is indivisible and is a single whole in the space-time continuum. According to this theory, each individual is a part of the Universe and fully reflects its structure. The material carrier of "integrity" is the holographic structure of DNA, in which the integrity algorithm is embodied. It was formulated by the ancient Greek scientist Heraclitus in the 5th century BC: "From one - all, from all - one".

Holism dominated the teachings of European thinkers from antiquity until the middle of the 17th century. Then, with the development of science, which assigned him the role of a philosophical concept that has no practical value, holism faded into the background.
Mass interest in the ideas of holism revived in the 20th century. The founder of the modern holistic approach was the South African politician and philosopher Jan Smuts. According to the concept set forth in the book "Holism and Evolution" (1926), holism synthesizes in itself both idealistic and material principles. It symbolizes the principle of integrity, where the part is subordinate to the whole. This essential quality soul, which ensures the connection of the object into a single whole and affects the quality of individual parts.
Since the beginning of the 90s of the XX century, first in the USA and then in Europe, wide use holistic medicine as an alternative direction within traditional medical practice.

The popularity and reasons for the development of holistic medicine:
A well-known and respected doctor of holistic medicine, who at one time left surgery, Roy Martina explains in one conversation in the following way: "The holistic approach is based on increasing the health potential of the patient. This is the most effective method of healing. In countries Western Europe and USA alternative medicine in general and holistic medicine in particular is developing at a tremendous pace. In the US, about 50% of the population uses non-traditional means and seek the help of specialists in holistic medicine. The services of professionals in the field of chiropractic and acupuncture are in great demand due to the fact that these techniques can cure many serious illnesses avoiding the complications that may cause the use pharmaceuticals. In countries such as Italy, Germany, Holland and other homeopathic remedies have long been sold in pharmacies, treatment in alternative medicine clinics is paid for by insurance companies. In the United States, a considerable number of independent studies have been conducted, the results of which are alarming to the public: treatment by traditional medicine methods ranks third among the factors that lead to the death of patients. More than 220,000 people die every year from taking medications, and in half of the cases the drugs are prescribed by doctors. Agree, these factors cannot but force humanity to turn their attention to holistic medicine and other alternative practices."

In Russia, holistic medicine, like other non-traditional practices, is practically a taboo topic among the medical community. The apogee of the persecution of holistic medicine was the decision adopted in 2007 Russian Academy Science about the fight against obscurantism in science. In the last year or two, the situation has changed somewhat in better side, however, most practitioners try not to touch on this topic. The topic of holism is also taboo for official medical publications.

Holistic medicine VS(against) symptomatic therapy:
modern medicine does not even try to cognize and understand the nature of an integral highly organized single organismic System, the properties of which are fundamentally different from the simple sum of the properties of its individual elements.
The harmonious interaction of the energies of all elements of the system, subordinated to a single goal, generates more high organization whole than the sum total of its constituent elements. One can try to cognize holistic properties based on the study of individual links of the body system: nervous, cardiovascular, digestive, excretory, etc. However, this knowledge will lack the quality of the whole or the unifying principle that exists outside the qualities of the individual parts.
According to Eduard Sirovsky, Dr. medical sciences, professor, ex-chief resuscitator of the clinic at the Research Institute of Neurosurgery. Burdenko, "Medicine, which is based on symptomatic therapy, completely ignores the fundamental importance of the holistic approach to treatment". Mr. Sirovsky notes: "This is especially evident in all preventive programs based on symptomatic treatment. The holistic, self-regulating system of the body, adapting to excessive influences, can externally manifest itself with many symptoms: an increase in temperature, blood pressure, cholesterol levels, edema, etc. In single combat with these symptoms, the doctor enters, far from the fundamental principles of purpose and integrity. A doctor who does not understand the essence of the integral system of the human body will strive, by any means, to normalize the detected deviations. If the doctor in his treatment tactics ignores the concept of holism, then negative consequences cannot be ruled out even after successful therapy."
Thus, today the doctor habitually builds his treatment tactics not on healing the body, but on eliminating the symptom, that is, the phenomenon by which the disease manifests itself. It is pointless to suppress a symptom that indicates a problem. Medical elimination of a symptom is not at all an indicator of a cure. Moreover, it can provoke even more serious violations of the function of the body system. The correct strategy would be to consider individual symptoms as SOS signals that require close attention, but not elimination, since the symptoms will disappear on their own after the cause is found and eliminated.
Symptomatic therapy, which guarantees the normalization of a physiological or biochemical parameter, creates only the illusion of apparent well-being. Such therapy misleads the doctor, who regards the elimination of the symptom as an absolute success of the treatment. For a doctor who does not understand the language of symptoms and is deprived of a holistic vision of the problem, medical normalization of the deviations that have arisen often becomes an end in itself.

The main directions of holistic medicine:
Most areas of holistic medicine have a long history, counting thousands of years. All of them were once considered classical and traditional, however, the development of science has given them the place of alternative or additional practices.
Acupuncture- a method that uses the impact on human organs and systems with the help of special needles through acupuncture points. This method was used 5 thousand years ago in the oldest medicine in the world - Chinese.
Homeopathy- a method of treating a disease, which consists in the use of special (homeopathic) drugs that cause signs and symptoms of this disease. The main feature of homeopathy is the use of an individual approach in treatment.

the main objective of all systems of holistic medicine, it is the maintenance of the health of the body, and not the treatment of symptoms of diseases.

p/s: Approach, basis in holistic medicine ( treating the person as a whole) has a very importance in solving any problems in the body.

What therapies are we turning to in the age of quantum physics, smart homes, and space tourism?

That's right, to the holistic! :) That is, to those who perceive our body not as a set of eternally ill, independent organs, but as a single, holistic (holistic) organism and directs all healing forces to optimize the functions of the whole body!

I see them as preventive, first of all. There is a lot of evidence that holistic medicine methods help even in the most extreme cases, but it is highly advisable not to bring them to them! Proper nutrition and establishing the flow of energy, balance hormonal system And correct work lymphatic, we can always maintain optimal health of our body!

What methods are considered holistic or integral?

• orthomolecular medicine
• homeopathy
• chiropractic and osteopathy
• acupuncture (including as a facelift)
• phytotherapy
• Ayurveda
• aromatherapy
• qigong su-jok, apitherapy, yoga, therapeutic massages, stone treatment, breathing according to Strelnikova and Buteyko, aeroionotherapy, treatment with flower essences according to Bach.

Methods - the sea. But how not to be mistaken and choose the only one, your own, which will help "just me and right now"? :))

Acupuncture.

The application of needles along the energy meridians of the body is an ancient Chinese medical practice, which helps alleviate and prevent many health problems. In fact, acupuncture ranks first among alternative methods treatment. It helps both with minor problems (a recent study published in American Journal of Rhinology & Allergy showed that acupuncture relieves sinus problems due to allergies) and more severe ones (researchers from the University of Pittsburgh and Temple University recently found that acupuncture relieves cancer pain). There are hundreds of studies published in respected medical journals showing that acupuncture can help treat chronic pain- for neck pain and neck pain nervous ground before premenstrual cramps.

Tip: Find a doctor you like first. Most likely it will suit you, intuition actually rarely fails, you just need to listen to it. Take advantage of the reviews of friends, listen to what they say about the specialist. A good specialist can really put you on your feet.

This is one of the methods that, in my opinion, is mandatory for everyone. In any case, you need to try it. It really works. By the way, there is even a lift with the help of acupuncture, called baby face. Adult girls are very suitable. Lasts up to a year.

Reflexology.

This treatment involves applying pressure to specific points on the legs, arms and head that correspond to various bodies bodies and systems. The idea is that clicking on these areas has beneficial effect on the relevant organs, as well as on the general state of health. “Reflexology is zone therapy,” says Robert Thursday, reflexologist, massage therapist and editor Yoga Journal Presents Your guide to reflexology. "Just as anesthesia can dull certain areas of the body, stimulating certain points can affect very specific organs, nerves, and areas of the body to reduce pain and increase their functioning." For example, if you suffer from constipation, a reflexologist can work with points that can help heal. digestive tract and solve the problem.

Numerous studies funded by the National Cancer Institute and the US National Institutes of Health show that reflexology is effective in reducing pain and treating psychological symptoms such as anxiety and depression, as well as in enhancing relaxation and sleep. One study found that people felt 40% less pain and were able to endure 45% more pain when they used reflexology as a pain relief method. Another study of breast cancer patients in 13 community health cancer clinics showed that patients who underwent reflexology improved their quality of life and physical functioning.

Tip: Here, as with massage: if you like various manipulations with your body, then you should try it, and if you like it, then do it regularly. The correct flow of energy is the key to a healthy and strong energy (read, “dream come true”, achieving goals and crowds of fans :)). It is believed that knowledge of the "correct" points on male body in the blink of an eye, it turned the concubines of the Chinese emperor into empresses, and later into the queen mother :).

massage therapy.

By pressing, rubbing and influencing the muscles and soft tissues massage therapists ease muscle tension by boosting circulation, and more research supports healing benefits massage therapy. Recent studies have shown that multiple 60-minute massages per week are more effective for people with chronic neck pain than shorter sessions; another study compared the short- and long-term effects of structural massage, relaxation massage, and conventional care (eg, medication, ice, and heat) on chronic low back pain sufferers. Results? Unlike conventional treatment, both massages significantly improved the condition and symptoms after 10 weeks, patients were more active, spent less days in bed and used less anti-inflammatory drugs.

Tip: Not everyone likes massages and when they are touched, so this method, although it is perfection itself and is considered a very important practice for women, which is desirable to do once a week, is not suitable for everyone. And pay attention to the master, whether you are comfortable in his office and at his hands. Still, massage in a sense is an energy practice!

Hydrotherapy.

This is the external or internal use of water in any form (i.e. ice, steam or water) in various temperatures, under different pressure and duration for treatment different parts body. Hydrotherapy is one of the oldest ways treatment. There are many scientific evidence that hydrotherapy can improve health in several ways. Various hydrotherapy treatments can help vascular and respiratory efficiency, improve muscle stiffness and pain, and even lower blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes 2 types, according to a review published in North American Journal of Medical Sciences.

Gasser. But some are unnerving for some reason :). For those who want to try, I advise you to strengthen light effect Gratitude to Water meditation (see)!

Craniosacral (craniosacral) therapy.

Craniosacral therapists believe that minute manipulations of the skull and sacrum increase circulation. cerebrospinal fluid improving the functioning of the central nervous system. Although there is no evidence to support its effectiveness (even a journal Complementary Therapies 
 in Medicine published a review of available research and "did not find sufficient evidence to support any therapeutic effect CranioSacral Therapy"), proponents of the therapy consider it deeply relaxing and a useful adjunct to other treatments for pain, injury, chronic fatigue and etc.

Honestly, I don’t know where to try it, but from Taoist practices I know that opening the sacrum is paramount for our female (as well as for male) strength. If you find it, be sure to try it. All the clamps that lead to problems with the joints, with the sexual chakra, even weak immunity, we can heal by opening the sacrum!

Chakra balancing.

Chakra Balancing focuses on the 7 major energy centers or chakras to heal both the physical and non-physical. physical level. “Ancient Vedic (the oldest known Sanskrit literature) knowledge tells us that we have Vital energy called prana, which moves through the energy channels in the midline of the body, with each chakra or energy center, determining the main human need says Candace Covington, certified aromatherapist, massage therapist and employee at the Chopra Center in Carlsbad, California. “When the center is open, the flowing energy allows the needs to be met; when blocked, the energy becomes stagnant and intentions are harder to realize.” So if, for example, your heart chakra is clogged, you may feel shy or alone. "Unlock energy channel can be a helpful start to revisiting repressed emotions to find ways out of old patterns and overcome obstacles,” says Covington.

Advice: This technique is recommended for those who feel the energies or are engaged in various practices. Often, if a person is doing chakra balancing, but he does not feel anything, then he does not perceive the result! Although the practice is super, and after it it becomes very easy in the body, and in the head - complete clarity reigns! Important questions are answered.

Reiki.

A Japanese method based on the principle that the practitioner can channel energy into the client with a gentle touch to activate the patient's innate, natural healing processes, Reiki is often used for stress reduction and relaxation. “It is based on the idea that an invisible, universal life force energy flows through us,” says Andrea Hokanson, a licensed massage therapist and Reiki master in Taunton, Massachusetts. “In yoga we call it prana; the Japanese call it ki. If this energy is reduced, we more likely we will get sick and experience stress, and if it is elevated, we will be happy and healthy.” In this way, the Reiki practitioner directs energy within their client to increase or balance this vitality. Result? Relaxation, more energy, and improvement general condition health. In fact, many hospitals are starting to incorporate Reiki and similar therapies (such as "healing touch") into treatment to help calm patients and prepare them for surgery and chemotherapy.

Advice: In my opinion, this is the same story as with chakra balancing: you feel the energies, find a master and try it. The effect is amazing. Anxiety is reduced, grounding occurs, insights are visited and you begin to look at the world very positively.

Zero balancing.

Developed by an osteopath turned acupuncturist, this method works on the relationship between energy system human and physical structure. Practitioners use finger pressure and gentle traction on areas of tension in bones, joints, and soft tissues—places that are gently targeted depending on where your energy is stuck. This therapy is said to help clear blocks in the body's energy flow, enhance vitality and improve posture.

Tip: See reflexology and massage.

biological Feedback(BOS).

Imagine that your doctor is connecting several painless electrical sensors in various places on your body so that you can see real-time feedback on what is happening inside through the computer screen. Then, using this feedback, the doctor will help you make subtle changes, such as slowing your breathing or visualizing the relaxation of the bowel muscle, to identify physiological changes, which you can see on the monitor, which will ultimately help you learn how to use these methods at home. This biofeedback helps in the treatment of various conditions, including urinary incontinence, chronic pain, anxiety, high blood pressure, irritable bowel syndrome, and more.

Tip: There are a lot of charlatans here, go only to those who are verified and only positive reviews!

Art therapy and music therapy.

Recent research shows that art and music can solve wide range physical and emotional problems. Review of 12 studies published in the journal Psycho— Oncology, has shown that cancer patients who express themselves through art cope well with treatment-related symptoms. Music therapy may improve the condition and symptoms in patients diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.

Tip: Sound therapy has been known since Egyptian times and certainly plays essential role in recovery and healing. Sound is vibrations, and given that everything has its own frequencies and vibrations, then restoring the body or a diseased organ with the help of sound is a very real situation. Especially if your auditory canal is developed! Remember, it is easier for some people to perceive the world through feelings, sensations and smells, for others through images, colors and brightness, while others learn and adapt through sounds?

Aromatherapy.

Essential oils have been used in therapeutic purposes for thousands of years to improve physical, emotional and spiritual well-being. While it's not entirely clear to experts how aromatherapy works, many believe that our sense of smell communicates with parts of the brain that store emotions and memories that affect health. “For example, there is some evidence that lavender stimulates brain cell activity similar to how some sedatives" says Covington. Your aromatherapist will apply essential oils to specific areas or have you breathe them through a piece of cloth, a steam machine, a vaporizer, or a diffuser. Aromatherapy helps relieve pain, depression, etc.

Tip: Consider your lead channel (auditory, visual, kinesthetic, described above). If you are kinesthetic and love scents, smells, sensations, then this is your type of therapy. Although still aromatherapy is more versatile. Still, the effect is on the limbic system of the brain, so it will help everyone. The question is, do you like it? :)

All Beauty and Radiance!

IN Lately, especially from the end of the 20th century to the present day, non-traditional types of medicine are becoming increasingly popular. More and more more people, not finding a cure for their diseases in conventional medicine, they turn to alternative. Moreover, alternative medicine is officially recognized World Organization Health (WHO). The most famous direction today is holistic medicine, the essence of which is to consider the human body as a whole, the interaction of organs with other systems.

Accordingly, a holistic approach is a certain approach to treating a patient, in which not only the detection of the disease at the present time is important, but also all the factors and causes that have influenced the formation of the disease in one way or another are diagnosed.

Holistic theory

Despite the fact that this approach is currently only gaining popularity, it was formed quite a long time ago. The word "holistic" is rooted in Greek language and in translation means "holistic". Based on this, we can say that from this point of view the whole world appears as one.

The holistic approach exists not only in medicine, it also means that each person is indivisible and is part of the Universe. Since ancient times, this statement has been of great interest to scientists, but in the middle of the 17th century, the holistic theory stopped in development due to the fact that it began to belong to philosophy and lost its practical value.

However, in the 20th century, Jan Smuts was able to formulate a holistic approach, to revive it to its former stages. Since the end of the 20th millennium, holistic medicine has begun to emerge and rapidly gain popularity.

Holistic approach in medicine

Presentation of the human body as a whole implies a certain approach. Holistic medicine is used by many people who have not found help from doctors. Professionals in this field argue that the main aspect is proper nutrition. In terms of a holistic approach, proper nutrition involves not only getting the right nutrients but also some physical activity.

To keep the body in order, you need to eat right and combine it with exercise. If there are already problems, holistic medicine can offer classical therapy, etc.

Previously, these methods were traditional and were generally recognized. However, with the advent of newer and more modern approaches, holistic medicine is now considered alternative way treatment, unconventional.

What exactly and how does holistic medicine treat?

The fact is that much in this direction depends on the person himself. A holistic approach to healing reveals huge potential better health for all who really want it.

However, this cannot be considered a panacea. It is necessary to consider each case separately, because the factors and causes of the disease are always different. The slogan of the holistic approach is the following statement: “No incurable diseases, there are incurable people.

This quote explains the fact that some people were able to get out of a hopeless situation, while others cannot get rid of the simplest disease. Holistic medicine has a wide range of effects on the human body. integrated system. Here the determining factor is the desire and aspiration of the person himself.

Human health from a holistic approach

This approach to health dates back to ancient times. About 4 thousand years ago, the first mention of it pops up in China. The holistic approach is a system of medicine focused on the treatment and prevention of diseases through various herbs, diets, exercise, massage, etc. The main goal was to promote and maintain health. If a person fell ill, it was believed that he lost the harmony and discipline of the spirit.

The holistic approach to health and currently involves the acquisition by the individual own strength self-control. He must achieve this with the help of his hidden abilities which were laid down by Nature herself.

A person is influenced in a certain way environment. Even ancient scientists identified certain factors that caused some diseases: weather, water, wind, habits, climate. The holistic approach to human health is intended, first of all, not to harm the patient, but to help him gain inner self-control.

The Patient from a Holistic Approach

Man is the main link in this medicine. The holistic approach to the patient implies, first of all, cooperation with him. He must understand that health is most important, and adhere to certain rules.

These rules include maintaining healthy lifestyle life, proper nutrition, exercise, gaining internal self-control. In the case of a disease, it is necessary to understand the cause, a holistic approach will help in this. Having considered everything possible factors that influenced the onset of the disease, it is possible to develop a treatment plan that will be most effective for a particular situation.

Holistic approach to the human body

This is a fairly new concept, and not all scientists have considered the human body from this point of view. The holistic approach is the ability to feel the body as a whole during exercise. At physical activity on any one part of the body, a sense of integrity is lost and inconvenience appears.

If you learn to control your body, feel the load in all parts equally, you will develop a sense of calm and comfort. However, this requires great job not only muscles, but also human consciousness.

Holistic psychology

Psychology involves "digging" a person in himself, identifying problems and ways to solve them. The holistic approach in psychology is aimed at the prevention of various diseases. According to this approach, the person himself is responsible for himself, his health and condition.

Holistic psychology is based on so-called cooperation. A person must be responsible for his condition. He must follow a healthy lifestyle. Responsibility will develop in a person the habit of adjusting behavior and emotions in favor of health promotion. In addition, this approach will help in relationships with colleagues at work and in the family.

Main directions

Medicine is quite diverse and has many methods in its arsenal. A holistic approach is one that influences the body non-traditional methods. Let's consider some of them:

• acupuncture, which is one of ancient methods, characterized by treatment with needles, has an effect on human organs;
• homeopathy - suggests individual approach to each patient;
• osteopathy - restoration of the motor part of the joints and spine with the help of massage;
• herbal medicine - the use of various herbs, ointments, decoctions in the treatment of a patient.
