More information about Medical:
Medicine is the science and practice of establishing the diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, and prevention of disease.
Medicine encompasses a variety of health care practices evolved to maintain and restore health by the prevention and treatment of illness.
Contemporary medicine applies biomedical sciences, biomedical research, genetics, and medical technology to diagnose, treat, and prevent injury and disease,
typically through pharmaceuticals or surgery, but also through therapies as diverse as psychotherapy, external splints and traction, medical devices, biologics, and ionizing radiation, amongst others.
Medicine has been around for thousands of years, during most of which it was an art (an area of skill and knowledge) frequently having connections to the religious and
philosophical beliefs of local culture. For example, a medicine man would apply herbs and say prayers for healing, or an ancient philosopher and physician would apply bloodletting according to the theories of humorism.
In recent centuries, since the advent of modern science, most medicine has become a combination of art and science (both basic and applied, under the umbrella of medical science).
While stitching technique for sutures is an art learned through practice, the knowledge of what happens at the cellular and molecular level in the tissues being stitched arises through science.
Does this sound familiar?
He’s sitting at the table, his hand struggling to write the letters most kids get in a snap. His breath comes out in huffs, small groans fall from his lips, and the inevitable hair grab occurs as frustration takes over.
He just can’t get it.
The words he’s reading make no sense. Writing isn’t any easier. Suddenly there’s shortness of breath and a visible withdrawal as he retreats from the exercises you put in front of him.
You’re supposed to help him, but even as you sit there, trying to walk him through the reading and writing exercises you have in your toolbox for treating dyslexia, you know that it’s not working.
It can make you feel like a failure.
Those exercises might have worked for the little girl yesterday, but today’s a different story. This child is a unique case, just like every single person with dyslexia, dyscalculia, or dysgraphia, which means your treatment approach requires more than the average techniques.
