The term 'physical-centric' combines 'physical,' originating from Latin 'physica,' meaning 'natural science,' and the suffix '-centric,' from Greek 'kentrikos,' meaning 'pertaining to a center.'

The word 'physical' evolved from the Latin 'physica,' which referred to natural science, while '-centric' was derived from Greek 'kentrikos,' meaning centered or focused.

Initially, 'physical' referred to natural sciences, but in modern usage, it often pertains to the body or tangible aspects. The suffix '-centric' has consistently meant focused or centered on a particular aspect.
