What does "Holistic" mean?​

​

Holism is the theory that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. This is certainly true with respect to nutrition. It is often misleading to look for a single deficiency as a possible cause for any condition because nutrients are synergistic. This synergistic relationship can be applied to everything in nature. Understanding the intricate balance between the human body, mind, emotions, social factors, and the environment is the foundation to health promotion and disease prevention.

Iris Therapeutics 

​

Iris Therapeutics was created to support and educate the community about the dietary, environmental, and behavioural factors connected to physical and mental manifestations of disease. The Holistic Recovery Program shines light on a client's body constitution, lifestyle factors, thought patterns, and nutritional deficiencies that compromise our ability to heal and thrive. Iris Therapeutics Wellness Studio is a space dedicated to assisting clients in reorienting the spirit to better heal the body. When we strengthen our connection to the natural world we find greater depth and meaning in our experiences. When we find meaning in our experiences we continue to seek that which serves the heart. The journey of recovery is a journey of the heart and it is through this exploration that we are able to fully revitalize the body, mind, and spirit.
