The holistic approach to medicine and health care emphasizes the integrity of each person's physical, mental, and spiritual being, the psychosocial context of health and illness, the importance of health promotion, a respectful partnership between physician and patient, and the actual or potential utility of techniques derived from a variety of healing traditions. It represents a recent attempt to enlarge and humanize the perspective and practice of modern biomedicine. After a discussion of the historical forces which have shaped the development of holistic medicine, this paper describes the salient characteristics of its paradigm, some of the evidence on which it is based, and some of its implications for medical practice.
整体医学与医疗保健方法强调每个人身体、心理和精神的完整性，健康与疾病的社会心理背景，健康促进的重要性，医生与患者之间相互尊重的伙伴关系，以及源自各种治疗传统的技术的实际或潜在效用。它是最近一次扩大现代生物医学视角并使其更具人性化的尝试。在讨论了塑造整体医学发展的历史力量之后，本文描述了其范式的显著特征、其所基于的一些证据以及对医疗实践的一些影响。
