Emphasizing the organic or functional relation between parts of a whole (8)

I believe the answer is:

holistic

(Other definitions for holistic that I've seen before include "(Medicine) treating whole person" , "(Of medicine) treating the patient as a whole, physically and psychologically" , "Type of medicine" , "Complete (medicine)" , "Treating the whole not just the diseased part" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
