Some Tips On Holistic Healing Portland

By Daphne Bowen


Health is not only the absence of a disease but also the state of complete physical, mental and social well-being. Hence, when attacked by a disease, we need to regain our healthy state. This commonly involves the use of medications to treat the disease. However, as defined, health involves state of complete physical, mental and social well-being. Therefore, to say you are completely healthy, all these systems have to be in harmony. This has lead to development of holistic healing Portland.

Holistic by itself means wholesome. Therefore, holistic healing, derived here, means the application of therapies that considers the person as a whole. It is an aspect of alternative medicine. These are drugs that are commonly used alongside the normal conventional therapies. All these therapies, both alternative and conventional, aim at ensuring that the body systems are back and reversed to the norm after a disease attack.

A large population of people in the city of Portland currently is well aware and believes that the innate wisdom is part of the human body. This therefore means that they can actually be able to regain their original state of wellness and being healthy after an infection on their own. Humans not only comprise of the DNA but also contain some aspects of emotional, spiritual and mental well-being that affect their health. To say therefore that you are healthy, there should be a complete harmony between these several systems in the body. Presence of diseases in the body disrupts the coexisting harmony.

Physical health of an individual is the basis of holistic therapy as compared to the other forms of therapies where they do not consider physical health as a major factor. The other therapies include complementary and integrative medicines. The person who has vast knowledge and practices holistic therapies is referred to as a holistic healer. The person will recognize the affected areas in the body and provide interventions of resolving them. He/she considers all the aspects of human beings.

The healer will look at the person as a whole in order to generate a complete evaluation and with the information gathered, he/she will suggest a certain form of treatment. In the city of Portland, not all holistic healers are equal. Each has his/her own area of specialty. It is therefore necessary for you to look for a suitable holistic healer who would handle all your complains. This is just the same as how you choose a medical professional.

Holistic treatments and therapies that can be applied are quite a number. First, homeopathy which is widely used is where the healer will advise you to take small doses of specific natural products that if given to a well and healthy person would produce symptoms similar to the ones you presented with. Advice on special and natural diet is also a holistic mechanism.

Thirdly, aroma-therapeutic interventions can be used. In this therapy, there is use of aromatic compounds and essential oils. Such compounds include benzene and toluene. The routes of administration may either be through inhalation or topical application. Moving on, acupuncture where needles, pressure and heat are used to relieve symptoms may also be used. It is commonly used for pain relief.

The oldest type, Ayurveda therapy which has its origin in India can also be used. It combines the use of herbs and special diets. Others include exercise, bodywork, praying and spiritual counseling.
