Abstract
There have long been debates over spiritual health with so many studies conducted and so many papers published (1). Iran is one of the top six countries active in
publishing papers related to spirituality and health in the world(2). Despite all these studies, the following questions arise: Is the concept reflected in the provision of essential health care? To what extent are the services provided to the people influenced by their spiritual health? Is the spiritual history taking similar to the history taking of any other problems that is normally conducted? How many local protocols and guidelines are available for spiritual treatment and interventions? The efforts of some countries to advance these points are observed in the published scientific documents (3).
