HEED-135 Introduction to Holistic Health

This course is designed to provide the student with an understanding of Holistic Health. Class participants will define and examine holistic health, CAM (complementary and alternative medicine), allopathic, and integrative medicine. Students will explore the five major types of CAM: alternative medical systems, mind-body interventions, biologically based treatments, manipulative and body-based methods, and energy therapies. Through discussion, lecture, participation, research, and guest speakers, the student will demonstrate comprehension of holistic health and the role CAM, allopathic medicine, and the patient have in maintaining health.
