Alternative Medicine as New Solution

By : Barnavies

Alternative medicine is worth exploring as a source of both new treatments and new perspectives on health and disease, and for approaches to reinforcing the individual’s “life force”, balance, and harmony with the environment.

Learning from fact in several country, In Australia 57 percent of the population now use some form of alternative medicine, in Germany 46 percent do, and in France 49 percent do. The growth of some types of alternative medicine is indeed astounding. Between 1991 and 1997 the use of herbal medicines in the United States grew by 380 per cent and the use of vitamin therapy by 130 per cent.

So, why do people increasingly prefer alternative to conventional medicine?

The reasons are pretty simple – it is safe and it works. While there is little doubt that allopathic medicine works well in the case of trauma and emergency (you don’t call your herbalist if you get hit by a car), it is much less effective when it comes to prevention, chronic disease, and in addressing the mental, emotional, and spiritual needs of an individual.

Alternative medicine is “alternative” because it is faith-based, it is anecdotal and placebo. It is always amusing to hear people say they don’t want to take “chemicals“. And alternative medicines are medical interventions not taught in conventional medical schools. They include herbal medications, acupuncture, therapeutic touch, chiropractic, homeopathy, prayers and other religious practices.
