I recently came across a term "Functional Medicine" https://www.ifm.org which looks at the body as a whole and tries to root cause metabolic issues which can often result in IBS cures.. most older medicinal practices always considered the body as a unified system which make sense in terms of how it is engineered but modern medicine tries to break things down and often misses the cross specialization impacts. Best of luck!

How is this far enough from the default to even have a word, let alone separate training?

If each part of the body has its own specialised discipline, then holistic (as in "of the whole" not "based on rubbish") medicine is the exception not the norm. Example: surgery to fix sports or occupational injuries will not correct the movement patterns or muscle imbalances that caused it, and thus it is likely to recur.
