Tackling Today’s Public Health Challenges with a Whole-Being Care Approach | Sherry McAllister

At the 2025 Global Health & Purpose Summit, Dr. Sherry McAllister highlights the urgent need to shift from symptom-focused healthcare to a holistic, whole-being care approach. She emphasizes integrating physical, emotional, social, and purposeful dimensions of wellness. With chronic pain affecting over a billion people globally, traditional healthcare often fails to address root causes, perpetuating cycles of pain and dependency. McAllister advocates for proactive, preventive strategies—like chiropractic care and collaborative, patient-centered models—that empower individuals to achieve optimal health. This integrated approach not only enhances individual well-being but also promises broader social benefits, ultimately supporting sustainable health for people and the planet.
