Holistic approach more than a quick fix?

Page last modified on: September 9, 2008
Question from Susan: I can lower my blood pressure and decrease my pulse rate with meditation, and it is a quick fix. Is the holistic approach more than a quick fix?
Answer —Patricia Johnson, M.D.: The holistic approach is not a quick fix, it's a way of life. When you live a holistic life, all aspects of your life are hopefully brought into balance.

On Wednesday, October 16, 2002, our Ask-the-Expert Online Conference was called Complementary and Holistic Treatments. Daniel Benor, M.D., Patricia Johnson, M.D., and Marisa Weiss, M.D. answered your questions about what complementary and holistic treatments are, how to find reliable practitioners, and which might be the best treatments for you.
