Therapeutic landscapes are places, settings, situations, locales, and milieus that encompass both the physical and psychological environments associated with treatment or healing, and the maintenance of health and well-being. Practices from holistic medicine--also known as nonconventional, alternative, complementary or traditional medicine--are used to illustrate specific humanistic concepts in further examining therapeutic landscapes. In addition to contributing to a theoretically-informed health geography, this paper further develops the concept of therapeutic landscapes and the understanding of holistic medicine.
治疗性景观是指那些包含与治疗、康复以及健康和幸福维护相关的物理和心理环境的场所、背景、情形、区域和环境。整体医学(也被称为非常规医学、替代医学、补充医学或传统医学)的实践被用于在进一步审视治疗性景观时阐释特定的人文概念。除了为基于理论的健康地理学做出贡献外,本文还进一步发展了治疗性景观的概念以及对整体医学的理解。
