 Alternative therapies have a outrageous operation of validity, from ear candling to neuromuscular massage. There have been conditions which reply good to normal disinfectant improved than pick medicine, a little which have been clamp versa, as well as many which reply to both approaches simultaneously. Why is there such doubt about a stroke of correct diet as well as recognition of food sensitivities? Acupunture seems to work upon animals, as well as if that’s true, doesn’t which mislay a remedy effect? Why a rejecting of a probability which there is an “energetic” aspect to health? we know flakey people have been rather some-more captivated to pick therapies, both upon a studious as well as practitioner side, though which in as well as of itself doesn’t nullify pick therapies. Any thoughts have been appreciated. |

I think alternative therapies are great. But think about the money and power behind Western medicine. Between doctors fees, insurance companies, drug companies…you’ve got a huge money making machine. If you put something into the mix that questions the effectiveness of what people have been strong armed into thinking what is right and powerful…it’s going to get a lot of flack. Couple that, as you’re saying, with flaky people being the practitioners…making things like acupuncture and chiropractic becomes all that much more challenging.
I have been a nurse for 28 years and always studied both regular and alternative medicine. Very soon whenIi become a nurse I saw the limitations. My most recent discovery is EFT emotional Freedom technique. No side effects, you can do it yourself and it addresses more then only the ” energy field”. It is pretty incredible and I have helped people with lowering their blood pressure, MS patient with pain, back pain, stomach ache, sinusitis, allergies etc. I even practice it sometimes in the hospital when I have a minute fo a short treatment…amazing. I have a friend you used to do accupuncture and now she tapps on the point… For more info see source
My career is in Western Medicine, however, I prefer Eastern Medicine. I am not a “flaky person”, and my colleagues would agree. I think that as long as time has stood, herbs have been around. In fact, many medicines today originate from plants and flowers (some pretty toxic ones, too). As far as acupuncture, I have had this done three different times now (3 different injuries). I had success twice and failure once. I have tried the “cupping”- but wasn’t quite sure of any positive effects of this procedure. I have also had chiropractic work done- with great results. As far as massage, there are numerous studies regarding MS, burn victims, etc that benefit greatly from therapeutic touch.
This is a dangerous road to travel these days just due to the physician who have gone to school learning what we have come to accept as “traditional” medicine. Imagine what would happen to all those physicians should we decide to adopt an Eastern philosophy of healing??
Sad that we can’t just do what is good for our bodies and not for the pocket books.
Medicine will continue to advance, hopefully in a more healthy manner.
The placebo effect is present in animals, also. Just because something works in animals does not mean it automatically negates the placebo effect. This is a common misconception and a bogus argument that is used to support many quack treatments.
