Alternative Medicine Practitioner Celebrates Lucky 7th Anniversary – Holistic Practice is Now the Trend

Local Alterative Medicine Practitioner, energy healer teacher, cable TV host, Helen Chin Lui, celebrated her lucky 7th Year milestone as a full-time alternative medicine business on September 6, 2013.

According to www. Holistictrend.com in 2013 holistic trend consumers are straying from traditional health advice and home remedies to seek out new and alternative ways of healing the mind, body and soul.  The trend is more people are trying various alternative healing modalities such as reflexology, reiki, massages, acupuncture, homeopathic and naturopathic medicines. There is more of a demand for classes in meditation, qi-gong, tai-chi, and yoga also.

What is holistic or alternative medicine? It is a system of health care which fosters a cooperative relationship among all those involved, leading towards optimal attainment of the physical, mental emotional, social and spiritual aspects of health.

It emphasizes the need to look at the whole person, including analysis of physical, nutritional, environmental, emotional, social, spiritual and lifestyle values. It encompasses all stated modalities of diagnosis and treatment including drugs and surgery if no safe alternative exists. Holistic medicine focuses on education and responsibility for personal efforts to achieve balance and well-being.
