Theta Healers – How to do Theta Healing

How do I become a holistic health practitioner?

I am interested in becoming a holistic health practitioner. I need to know how to do that. Do I need to become a nurse first? I would like to have the knowledge of a doctor but not prescribe meds. Is this possible. What type of schooling should I do? I am not completely against medicine. I just want to be more natural. Someone help me out here?

Hello Dear, I am a current medical student and I am also interested in holistic medicine, so you may want to consider these options:

1)Ayurvedic Medicine
Key Points
* The aim of Ayurveda is to integrate and balance the body, mind, and spirit. This is believed to help prevent illness and promote wellness.
* In Ayurvedic philosophy, people, their health, and the universe are all thought to be related. It is believed that health problems can result when these relationships are out of balance.
* In Ayurveda, herbs, metals, massage, and other products and techniques are used with the intent of cleansing the body and restoring balance. Some of these products may be harmful when used on their own or when used with conventional medicines.
* Before you seek care from an Ayurvedic practitioner, ask about the practitioner’s training and experience.
* Tell your health care providers about any complementary and alternative practices you use. Give them a full picture of what you do to manage your health. This will help ensure coordinated and safe care.

2)Naturopathic Medicine:
Naturopathic medicine (also known as naturopathy) is a complementary and alternative medicine. Naturopathic practice may include different modalities such as manual therapy, hydrotherapy, herbalism, acupuncture, counseling, environmental medicine, aromatherapy, orthomolecular medicine, nutritional counseling, homeopathy, and chiropractic. Practitioners emphasize a holistic approach to patient care. Naturopathy has its origins in a variety of world medicine practices, including the Ayurveda of India and Nature Cure of Europe. [1] It is practiced in many countries but subject to different standards of regulation and levels of acceptance.

3)DO (doctor of Osteopathic Medicine)
-There are only two types of medical doctors in America – MDs and DOs. They are both surgeons/physicians, have the same specialties/residencies/salaries/responsibilties.

So whats the difference? DOs take extra classes in osteopathic manipulative medicine on top of the MD curriculum. DOs also emphasize holistic medicine (ie. DOs are trained to treat the “whole person” and not just symptoms).

In DO medical school, students are trained to pay attention to body,mind, spiritual, socioeconomic, pscyhological, family history etc etc of the patient. However, in today’s world, DOs are basically MDs and MDs are basically DOs. The only difference is philosophy

1)Ayurvedic school admissions: I am not sure
2)Naturopathic medicine: 8 years after high school (4 years undergrad and 4 years of Naturopathic school)
3)DO/MD medical schools: 11 years after high school is the minimum (4 years in undergrad, 4 years in medical school, 3-7 years of residency)

Note: you can still practice holistic medicine even with MD/DO training. For example, you can incoroporate acupuncture, herbal remedies, message etc etc in your normal practice.

The Uterine Health A Holistic Guide to Lifelong Wellness: $11.54 The uterus is a remarkable organ–it is our first home, it contributes to women’s sexual pleasure, it houses some of the strongest muscles in the body, and it even helps to prevent heart disease and high blood pressure. However, the uterus seldom receives our attention except when it becomes problematic or when we focus on getting pregnant or giving birth. And while health-promoting strategies for organs like the heart and lungs have become common knowledge, preventative measures for lifelong uterine health have been largely absent from Western medicine. Consequently, U.S. women have the highest rate of hysterectomy in the world. InThe Uterine Health Companion, Eve Agee demonstrates why the uterus matters and how we can take care of it, from menarche to menopause–and beyond. She presents mind-body practices to create lasting health so that issues such as PMS, fibroids, and endometriosis do not have to be our destiny as women. A comprehensive holistic plan including nutrition, exercise, cognitive restructuring, and visualization shows us how to promote uterine wellness and enhance conventional medical therapies. Chapters dedicated to specific uterine issues illustrate how to support our health through simple daily practices and fundamental attitude shifts in our relationship to our bodies. The book also includes strategies for women who have had hysterectomies. This empowering resource offers a prescriptive, balanced approach to developing and maintaining optimal uterine health, for every woman at any stage of life.
