Health ServicesHolistic health, after being considered for years as a “fringe” health practice, has come of age. “Alternative” health is now being accepted by many “traditional” practitioners and has been renamed in those practices to “Complementary” Medicine. “Modern” medicine recognizes that holistic health complements allopathic (traditional) medicine... This is indeed a far cry from the attitude of Medical Doctors 10 or 30 years ago, when the very name holistic medicine conjured long-haired hippies and dubious medical practices. Now, acupuncture (which has been “traditional” in the Orient for centuries) has been accepted by the medical establishment. Vitamins are now known and used by the mainstream population. Herbs are turned to instead of drugs in many instances. People are realizing, more and more, that natural medicine, which has been around for centuries before “traditional” medicine, is still far and beyond often the best solution for our modern-day ills. A Healer’s Herbal, a book which was originally published in 1901 (publisher Samuel Weiser Inc.), has a section on lupus, strokes, rheumatism, asthma, acne, obesity, anemia, etc. Obviously (since a 1901 herbal has suggested remedies for each of them and more), these are not new diseases and have been dealt with for centuries. Many of us are returning to natural healing methods in our personal lives and visiting “alternative” practitioners when we have a health challenge. In days gone by, the general practitioner (now almost defunct) was the person we could turn to for all our ills. In this day and age, we have specialists for every single ailment. However, in “alternative” medicine, while we have many modalities (acupuncture, homeopathy, naturopathy, chiropractic, etc.), each of these practices can usually address many of our ills. Browse through this section, read the related section in the glossary, and find the ones that best suit your needs. Good health to you! |
