Holistic Care
Treating the person instead of just the condition
holistic [hoh-lis-tik] (adjective) —
1. Incorporating the concept, in theory or practice, that whole entities have an existence other than as the mere sum of their parts2. Emphasizing the importance of the whole and the interdependence of its parts.
Holistic medicine is not necessarily about New Age or alternative therapies. Instead, it represents a significant change in the entire interaction between the doctor and patient.
By bringing together information related to biophysical, psychological, and social factors, MyCare PHC's holistic approach focuses on the whole patient and not just the specific disease, condition, injury, or symptom.
The exact approach that you need, exactly when you need it.
The holistic physicians at MyCare PHC offer multi-disciplinary approaches, the best and most advanced medical and pharmaceutical technologies, and openness to thinking outside the box. Your MyCare PHC personal physician will put forth the time and effort to explore a wide range of therapeutic options that can maximize your health and wellness. Those options might include:
- Massage therapy
- Yoga and stretching
- Chiropractic care
- Nutritional counseling
- Lifestyle modification therapy
- Acupuncture
Holistic care also impacts the other side of the doctor-patient relationship. By learning how choices, actions, and attitudes affect the current condition, the patient can become an active participant in the healing process. Holistic care is both wholly comprehensive and uniquely empowering.
