Holistic Medicine

Holistic medicine includes some the oldest forms of treatments in the world, including natural herbs, acupuncture, physical therapy, aromatherapy, vitamins, minerals, lifestyle behaviors, exercises, and otherwise noninvasive or natural treatments.  Holistic medicine encourages the body to be at its best in terms of physiological functioning so that it is strong enough to address the underlying health concerns.   When you focus on holistic medicine as a complement to your current treatment plan, hormones and chemicals are balanced, leaving the body a fertile and safe environment to address underlying medical concerns.  There is always an underlying cause of pain, injury, and disease.  Holistic medicine helps you and your medical providers look at the body as a whole organism with multiple systems that work in tandem.  Holistic medicine is a natural and simple way to improve patient care because it inspires patients to care for themselves at home, limiting their need for medical attention.  Natural medicine is useful in treating conditions and injuries of the body that are causing pain, discomfort, and immobility.   Dr. John G Atwater is a forward-thinking orthopedic surgeon who understands the growing need for people not only to understand their orthopedic conditions, but the effect on their whole body.  While OSA in Vero Beach does not offer holistic medicine specialty services at the clinic, Dr. Atwater and our medical professionals are happy to discuss options and possible referrals.
