Not necessarily. If traditional Chinese medicine, and other pre-modern medical traditions, are any indication, then there are many physical processes which are nevertheless not readily detectable by the methodologies employed by modern western medicine.

This part of my statement was not meant to be an all encompassing definition - but rather a specific answer to a specific question, i.e. "Would you be able to describe on what basis you suspect this to be a condition needing spiritual healing, ..." Thus my comments are limited to describing my thinking at this time and in this particular situation - the fact that physiological processes may or may not go unobserved or undefined might at some point change my analysis of the situation, but at this time and in this situation, this is how I came to this particular conclusion.

The second part of my answer is much more the "all encompassing" and general issue upon which I base many of my answers and which the momentary deficiencies of western medicine will have absolutely no bearing.
