Are there any accepted forms of alternative medicine?



For the most part, alternative medicine still has a bad reputation in the conventional medicine arena.  Physicians often believe that these types of complementary therapies are a waste of time.  Here, you will learn which alternative therapies are actually getting scientific support and recognition.  Sure, the medical community maybe slow catching on, but as time goes on, it's a good bet that this list will grow.

Acupuncture

By sticking small needles into certain parts of the body, it is thought that acupuncture can help you realign the energies of the body in order to promote good health.  Helping everything from fertility troubles to chronic pain, acupuncture is now being covered by many health insurance policies due to its effectiveness.

Herbal Medicine

While herbal medicine is still met with a great amount of skepticism, it's clear from the grocery store shelves that people are buying herbal supplements.  From Echinacea to ginger and St. John's Wort, people are noticing that they can self-medicate with ingredients from nature.

Homeopathy

Using minute amounts of ingredients which cause the symptoms you want to get rid of, homeopathic remedies help the body fight off these symptoms on its own.  Instead of causing a large reaction, these remedies help the body create the right defenses so that you can begin to feel better.

Reflexology

By touching and pressing on certain parts of the hands, feet, and head, you can begin to feel better in other parts of your body.  The body is connected, after all, so it's not a large leap to think that stimulating one part of the body could heal another part.
