Holistic medicine belongs to the field of alternative medicine, and thus is viewed with suspicion by many conventional doctors. Especially when it comes to treating cancer with holistic methods. On the other hand, conventional doctors trace their science back to ancient Greece, particularly to Hippocrates, whom they consider the father of medicine.
