Holistic approach - treating the whole body well. When just one part of the body needs treatment, you still treat just that part. Holistic doesn't mean never taking a pill to make you healthy again. It means living as healthily as possible to minimise the amount of pills you may need in the future. It doesn't mean never taking pills.

We do holistic living. We also take medical treatments - "alternative" or prescribed - as needed. NEEDED. Maybe it's time to take about "needing" and "wanting". Such as "DS2 needs to take his tablet to be healthy, why did you want to take a tablet when you don't need to? It's so much better to be healthy like you. When DS2 is bigger he won't need these tablets and will be healthy without them, but now he needs them to be healthy. We don't like tablets, but we have to do them. It's worse than [insert chore here]! But we need to do it, so we do. Why doesn't my big, strong, healthy boy show me how good and fantastic he is by bringing me a book/toy so we can all enjoy this after the yicky tablet?"
