Harmony Within: Understanding Holistic Health: Practitioners and Modalities What are the parameters for well-being? Stress and global uncertainty contribute to chronic diseases that affect us physically, emotionally, and financially. Complementary and alternative medical practices offer valid mind-body-spirit approaches to health and well-being. But who is licensed? This course will explain the different types of practitioners, licensure, and scope of practice. We will also cover the basics of Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), both recognized as valid medical systems by WHO, as well as the history of Western Medicine, Homeopathy, and Naturopathy.
