Complementary
Medicine is the use of natural therapy and
medicines to restore and maintain health
in addition to conventional medicine. Dating
back to 420 B.C., around the time of Hippocrates,
complementary medicine is also considered
a practice beyond the realm of conventional
modern medicine - naturopathy, chiropractic,
Ayurvedic, homeopathy, acupuncture and so
many other complementary medicine treatments
are steadily in demand and on the rise.
Because our bodies are composed of chemical
and physical reactions, holistic practitioners
affirm that illness is not directly caused
by pathogens such as viruses or bacterium;
instead is the consequence of the body's
reaction (in an effort to shield and heal
itself) to a pathogen. Naturopathic and
holistic doctors assist potential clients
through complementary medicine by plainly
alleviating symptoms of disease. Complementary
medicine can treat most conditions like
headaches, sore throats, flu and cold, indigestion,
ear infections, dermatitis, urinary tract
infections, sprains and strains. Some chronic
conditions such as migraines, autoimmune
disorders, cardiovascular disease, arthritis,
cancer, muscle-skeletal pain, depression,
stress, and even pregnancy and childbirth
may be treated with complementary medicine
as well.
Complementary medicine teaches proper nutrition
in conjunction with vitamin and mineral
supplements. Plants and herbs are commonly
used in alternative medicine to treat illness,
as well as remedies produced from animals
and minerals. Hydrotherapy and hypnotherapy
are also utilized in complmentary medicine
for maximum benefits. All in all, complementary
medicine improves mental, emotional, and
physical health. It encourages psychic and
spiritual growth, and an overwhelming sense
of wellness.
