During the first consultation a full medical history may be taken with a general appraisal of your life style, e.g. work environment, diet, exercise and updated on consequential appointments. Holism means the 'whole'. It refers to seeing the person as an individual and adapting to the client's needs. It includes their environment, diet, life style and emotions.
