ABSTRACT
Holism is a philosophy that believes in treating the whole person and in the integration of mind, body and spirit. Holism promotes the belief that these three elements of a human being must be treated together in order to achieve any notion of healing rather than simply treating a person for a specific illness or inquiry. Tabi‘at (natural recuperative power) is the administrator of the vital body and when tabi‘at is powerful enough to withstand the disease, it does not require the aid of physician. This paper highlights the importance of basic concepts of Unani Medicine in promoting the basis of our health (e`itadal al- mizaj “homeostasis”).
Key words: Holistic approach, Tabi‘at, Health, Unani Medicine
