Wholistic convential care addresses the same spectrum of issues addressed by wholistic healing - inviting people to identify and deal with issues of body, emotions, mind, relationships and spirit. The range of approaches in conventional care is far more limited, however. These may include:

Body - medical diagnosis, followed by prescription of medications, hormones, surgery, physiotherapy, and massage ( the latter two are usually limited to muscle and joint problems, not including psychological issues). Biological energies are rarely addressed.

Emotions and Mind - when wholistic physicians cannot identify a physical cause for a problem, or when people present with clear symptoms of anxiety,  depression or psychosis, they may refer the person for psychological examination and treatment. If a psychiatrist is consulted, the approach is likely to be through medications that address symptoms (e.g. anixety, depression, phobias, or psychosis). If a different mental health worker is consulted, the approach is likely to be cognitive behavioral therapy.  

Relationships with other people - Referrals to individual, marital and family therapists of various sorts are common.

Relationships with the environment - Environmental medicine explores toxins and allergens in the environment that may impact our health. Focus is on chemical pollutants for the most part. Electromagnetic pollution and 'sick building syndrome' (due to closed circulation of air that accumulates toxins) are rarely addressed.

Spirit - For problems in spiritual dimensions of people's lives, conventional medicine usually refers people to religious authorities or counselors.

In contrast, Wholistic Healing therapists at their best are more likely to address several or all levels of people's problems within a Complementary/ Alternative Medicine approach.

Some CAM therapists work from a more limited model, addressing only limited portions of a person's being. These are also more likely to approach problems in the allopathic model of the therapist fixing people's problems rather than exploring with people how they can address their own problems.

Bioenergetic aspects of health and illness are addressed.
