With its emphasis on a healthy life style, self-responsibility, lessened dependence on the medical care system, and the interrelationship of body, mind, and spirit, the wholistic health movement is exerting a powerful influence on the health level of Americans. Health providers will increasingly find themselves challenged to reexamine their roles in patient relationships, increase the extent of interdisciplinary teamwork, emphasize health education and positive health behaviors, examine the usefulness of various alternative therapies, and consider the importance of health professionals as role models.
整体健康运动强调健康的生活方式、自我责任、减少对医疗保健系统的依赖以及身体、心理和精神的相互关系，正在对美国人的健康水平产生强大影响。医疗服务提供者将越来越发现自己面临挑战，需要重新审视他们在医患关系中的角色，扩大跨学科团队合作的范围，强调健康教育和积极的健康行为，审视各种替代疗法的效用，并考虑健康专业人员作为榜样的重要性。
