Holistic Health and Wellness treats the Cause not just the Symptoms.
Holistic Health and Wellness Health Care Providers look for the Cause instead of treating the Symptoms alone. This is possible because they are not under the same constraints from Governments.
Looking for the Cause is probably one of the most important things in Health Care. Yet, because of the way modern Mainstream Medicine is structured and controlled by Governments, it often gets overlooked.
Medicare, designed to help the average person get proper Health Care, is structured in a way that puts Doctors under pressure to deliver high speed Medical Treatment and Advice. That means they treat the symptoms. In a lot of cases this works. Unfortunately often the symptoms return. Now we have a problem.
Have you ever seen a Fireman trying to put out a fire by blowing away the smoke? NEVER! He blows away the smoke by FIRST putting out the fire.
Here is a very simple but classic example of Holistic Health Wellness approach. - "You eat an Ice Cream too quickly. - What happens? You get a Headache - Right?" You feel the pain in your head but the Cause is something too cold in your Stomach. Drink something warm and the Headache is GONE!
We need to analyze what is happening in Health Care. On one hand we have Mainstream
Medicine. On the other hand we have Natural Therapies and Substances.
Let us look at them separately for a moment.--
What is Mainstream Medicine?
It is what is taught in Medical School. It is supported by Scientific trials using Drugs produced scientifically by Big Pharmaceutical Companies. Synthetic substances produced in Laboratories, Trialed and Approved by Government Agencies such as FDA or TGA. Then they are prescribed by Doctors for the treatment of various Ailments. Unfortunately, a lot of these substances carry numerous Side Effects, so must be closely monitored.
What is Holistic Health and Wellness?
The Holistic approach looks at the Body as a Complete Unit. It uses Natural Therapies and Substances. Natural Therapies and Substances have been used by our Ancestors for Thousands of years. Very few of these substances have any known side effects. Some of these Products have been put through Clinical Trials with Amazing Results. Some of these results have been covered up because the Products cannot be Synthesized by Drug Companies.
