"Holistic Medicine is defined by the Canadian Holistic Medical Association as follows.

Holistic medicine is a system of health care which fosters a cooperative relationship among all those involved, leading towards optimal attainment of the physical, mental emotional, social and spiritual aspects of health.

It emphasizes the need to look at the whole person, including analysis of physical, nutritional, environmental, emotional, social, spiritual and lifestyle values. It encompasses all stated modalities of diagnosis and treatment including drugs and surgery if no safe alternative exists. Holistic medicine focuses on education and responsibility for personal efforts to achieve balance and well being."

look at this part

As I understand Holistic Medicine simply promotes a healthy way of life and doesn't replace modern medicine. I haven't read too much about it, but you could so you can then explain to your parents what it is about.
Perhaps your parents have a false image on that, who knows what they think. maybe you could talk to them (while being informed) and tell them that holistic medicine doesn't replace modern medicine and also ask them what do they think might happen if you go to your friends house? what do they fear?
I think they are uninformed and that leads to fear, and fear leads to rejection.

Because they are stuck in their ways. Can't change them, but you can learn from their ways and raise your children with open minds and hearts.
