Abstract

Holistic Health Holistic Nursing - standards Humans Models, Psychological Nurse-Patient Relations Placebo Effect Placebos - therapeutic use Randomized Controlled Trials as Topic Therapeutic Equivalency
The growing use of holistic interventions in the form of complementary and alternative therapies has renewed interest in the placebo effect. A brief history of thought on the placebo effect as a nonspecific, bona fide effect and the result of meaning making were explored. Case situations illustrate the interplay among holistic interventions, the placebo effect, and healing.
