Heya Sparky (I'm sounding a bit National Lampoonish there! :D)
In short I would say that the benefit of holistic therapies is that they are treating the person as a whole (whole-istic) rather than conventional treatments that tend to target specific biological (in most cases) areas and in a lot of cases only tackle the symptoms rather than the root cause.
e.g. you can treat an achingneck with hot or cold compresses and painkillers but what good is this going to do if the actual cause of the aching neck is because the person has been through a stressful time in a relationship. While they arestill feeling the stress the symptoms will return. ;)
