This is quite a difficult topic to write about in English, but I will try.
Today I learned a new English phrase: "holistic medicine." This subject piqued my interest because this is what the Medical Doctor who owns my gym practices holistic medicine.
The more articles I read about this approach, the more I feel I understand better what I've been doing at the gym.
From what I gather, "holistice medicine" approaches the pursuit of health and wellness from several angles. These angles include the mental, emotional and spiritual element, as well as the physical components of the body.
The doctor at the gym has a way of checking my body that is somewhat different from the usual medical checkup because he examines the production of hormones and his patients'emotional state as well as giving them a physical check . I think it was interesting to know the more hidden condition of my body when I first started going to the gym.
In a way, it's a bit funny that I've been putting effort into something I was not interested in just a year ago.
In fact, I had been having problems with an upset stomach for quite a long time but I feel I've been healed within just a few short weeks of going to the gym, and without medicine either.
Life is amazing and you never know just how much a chance encounter with someone or something might change your life for the better.

英語で書くには かなり難しいトピックですが、挑戦してみます。
今日、英語の新しいフレーズ ”holistic medicine"を学びました。 その意味を調べているうちに 多くの興味が湧いてきました。それは、医者である私の通っているジムの経営者が まさに試みていることだからです。
それを調べるためにいろいろな記事を読めば読むほど、何のためにジムに行っているのかがよりわかってきます。
私の学んだところによると、 Holistic medicineは 健康であることを追求するためにさまざまな角度から取り組みます。例えば、体の健康状態はもちろんですが、 心、感情、さらに精神的な面からです。
その医者の健康診断のやり方は、普通のものと違っています、例えば、科学的にホルモンや心の状態を検査します。 最初に目に見えない(隠された）心身の状態を知ることは とても興味深い事だと思います。
一年前には全く興味もなかったことを今取り組んでいるということは、ある意味、とても面白いと思います。
実は、長いこと、胃の不調で悩んでいました。 でも そのジムに行き始めて わずか数週間で薬を使うことなく治ってしまいました。
人生は面白いです、出会ったものや人によって あなたの人生が よりよいものに変わっていくことがあるんですから。

Anyway, holistic medicine has kind of a negative stigma over here in the states. It's perceived as "hippie healing". Some holistic medicines are okay, but most of them are just people cramming a few random herbs into a bottle and claiming them to be a panacea for whatever ails you. The physical side of holistic medicine tends to be helpful, but be very careful taking holistic supplements or remedies. You may not get the results you are looking for.
As an example, my girlfriend got detergent in her eyes once. Once she had rinsed her eyes out, she tried some holistic eye drops to soothe them. It made it worse to the point where she actually had to be rushed to the Emergency Room so she didn't end up blind. Be very, very careful with holistic medicine.
There must be various types of holistic medicine. I guess that if it goes too far, it will carry a lot of risk. I'm glad to know that your girl friend was able to avoid the worst case, in the end.
Thank you for your information and advice. I will keep it in mind!

It's funny that what I've been putting efforts into now is something that I was not interested in at all a year ago.

Thank you very much for your wonderful corrections!
I re-wrote it by following your corrections. It is perfect! My entry became like a journal written by a professional writer!
I need to let you know that there is one sentence that I couldn't change completely. This is because I still want to put the word "hormone." It is an unusual examination.
I am not sure if the sentence is correct...
Thank you!!!
