Defining Alternative Medicine
There really isn’t a brief definition of “alternative medicine.” Alternative medicine is a broad term that is basically used
to describe any health care that does not involve the use of prescription drugs ordered by or surgery performed by a doctor
with a degree in conventional medicine – that is, a degree from a recognized medical school.
The Western medicine establishment historically has dismissed all forms of alternative medicine as ineffective. There is no
distinction made between, say, a chiropractor and a witch doctor or between an herbalist’s recommendations for herbal medicines
and Granny’s home remedies.
Very few medical doctors will tell a patient with a backache to go and see a chiropractor. The medical doctor will prescribe pain
medication and refer the patient to another medical doctor who specializes in bone and joint disorders and surgeries
(an orthopedist), but sending a patient to a chiropractor who could actually make the back pain go away without the use
of drugs or surgery just isn’t going to happen – or it isn’t going to happen very often. Only a few medical doctors do recognize
the value of alternative medicine, but not many.
The knowledge gained through the practice of alternative medicine over several centuries is what Western medicine is based on.
Somebody didn’t come along and invent modern Western medicine one day. No, Western medicine EVOLVED. The prescription drugs
that doctors write prescriptions for today are synthetic versions of herbal medicines that have been used for 5,000 years by
people without degrees from medical schools.
Chiropractors, herbalists, acupuncturists, aroma therapists, and hypnotists are all considered to be practicing “alternative
medicine.” Chinese medicine that has been practiced for thousands of years is also considered alternative medicine.
Don’t be fooled by the term. “Alternative medicine” is simply any practice designed to improve health that ISN’T conventional
Western medicine.
