The difference between Holistic and Allopathic Medicine

This is something that can be very confusing at times but to break it down in leman terms here is a definition between the two.

Holistic medicine is a natural way of healing using herbs, energy and the body to heal. Chiropractors, Massage therapists, hypnosis, and acupuncturist would all fit into Holistic health providers.
Allopathic medicine is a more scientific approach to healing, using chemicals (drugs), surgery, and lab work to heal. OBGYN’s, Family practice doctors, endocrinologists, and surgeons would all fit into Allopathic health providers.

While both are very different, one is not exactly better than the other. I believe that there is a great advantage of using a combination of the two practices. By combining Holistic care along with allopathic care, patients can receive better success rates then they could have alone.
When looking at the different fertility options out there don’t hesitate to look at both types of treatment. Since we are all so individual, you never know what might work well for you.
