Alternative and Complementary Medicine: Old Medicine, New Synergies
The terms alternative medicine and complementary medicine
are often wrongly used as synonyms. Actually, the term
alternative medicine refers to medicine systems like
Ayurveda or Acupuncture that are used in place of
conventional medicine, while complementary medicine refers
to those therapies like massage that are used in
conjunction with conventional medicine.
Treating Fibromyalgia with Tao Holistic Healing Program
The Tao Holistic Healing Program (http://www.taoholistichealing.com) is a 10-day intensive training helping people to take control of their health and lives. It has been successful in guiding individuals to relieve symptoms of fibromyalgia, sometimes leading to complete recovery. In the program, unrecognized emotional pain, rooted in the past, are viewed as often being a major contributor to physical pain in the present. The treatment is to feel the physical pain, and then the emotional pain, recognizing the connection between the two. Through this process, participants commonly experience dramatic release of pain from the body.
Alternative Medicine vs Conventional Medicine - Part 1
The term 'alternative medicine' that is so commonly used today is somewhat unsuitable since that would seem to indicate that it is a form of treatment departing from so-called 'traditional' scientific practices and is just a
possibility for a new treatment of disease. The truth is, so called 'alternative' medicine is the natural treatment of disease that was in effect in ancient times long before conventional medicine was ever introduced.

Alternative Medicine vs Conventional Medicine - Pt 2
In Part 1 we discussed the fact that alternative medicine
(so called) was being used in ancient times long before
conventional medicine came on the scene. It is interesting
to note that there were not so many diseases plaguing mortals
in those days.
Natural Health & Holistic Medicine Verses Doctors & Conventional Medicine
Our argument for choosing Natural Therapies over conventional medicine is this
Alternative Medicine is Holistic, Western Medicine is Reductionist
The major difference between alternative medicine, or what I'll call holistic health, and Western medicine, is in approach.A Western doctor, or MD, sees his duty as searching out disease, diagnosing it, and treating it.
