Frequently Asked Questions

Can a holistic physician write prescriptions for me?

Holistic medicine relies on the idea that all diseases are caused in part by a combination – diet, lifestyle and environment. Stress, anxiety, genetics and any other health-related factors.

This is a comprehensive approach to treating patients.

Physicians must know both modern science and traditional methods, such as homeopathy and herbs, to fully understand the impact of each factor on patients.

Many doctors are certified to practice complementary and alternative medicine (C&A). This allows them the ability to offer a wide variety of services to their clients.

What does complementary medicine mean?

Complementary Medicine encompasses any medical treatment that adds to the mainline. This includes massage therapy, acupuncture and aromatherapy as well as traditional Chinese medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, yoga, and reflexology.

Complementary medicine is not meant to be used in place of conventional medicine, but instead as a complement. They’re also sometimes called “alternative” or “integrative” medicine because they integrate Western scientific methods with other approaches that have been proven effective in healing people.

What is the difference in holistic and traditional medicine?

Traditional medicine focuses on treating symptoms, while holistic medicine treats the whole person. Holistic medicine is holistic and does not focus on any one aspect of the patient’s/her health.

Traditional medicine treats only a few organs or system (such as the mind), while holistic medicine addresses all aspects of the human body. It examines how lifestyle choices impact overall health and wellness.

Statistics

How To

What are the 4 categories of complementary and alternative medicine?

There are four major types of CAM: mind-body medicine (natural products), manipulative therapies (energy healing), and manipulative therapies (natural products). Mind-body medicine can include yoga, meditation and Tai Chi. Natural products include herbs and vitamins, minerals as well as dietary supplements. Manipulative treatments include physical manipulations, including acupuncture, chiropractic, and osteopathic treatment. You can also use prayer and visualization to help you heal your energy.

CAM is a general term that covers many health practices not covered by Western medical models. There are many differences in the scientific support for these practices, including whether they involve drugs and surgery, as well as which conditions they treat. Some CAM practitioners can also do diagnostic testing (e.g., blood test) and prescribe medication. Some practitioners do both.

There are many subcategories that fall within each of these categories. Mind-body medicine includes relaxation techniques, mindfulness training and guided imagery. It also includes self-hypnosis, meditation, qigong and Tai chi. Natural products are nutritional supplements, botanical medicines, homeopathic remedies, essential oils, probiotics, nutraceuticals, herbal preparations, medicinal plants, and teas. Manual, movement, manipulation, electrotherapies and soft tissue mobilization are some of the manipulative therapies. There are spiritual healing modalities such as prayer and faith healing within energy healing.

Many CAM therapies treat symptoms, but not the cause. Some chronic diseases can be helped by CAM. If used correctly, CAM may be a complement to conventional treatments.

There are many reasons that people use CAM.

To improve their overall well-being.
To manage a particular condition.
To reduce pain or discomfort.
To prevent illness.
To promote wellness.
To address a person’s belief system.

Because it gives them more control than traditional medicine, some people choose CAM. Some may feel it has less side effects. Others choose CAM to avoid taking prescription medications. Some people prefer not to use pharmaceuticals. Others seek out CAM after having bad experiences with traditional medicine.

Some people who use CAM say they want to be sure about what they are doing before trying something new. Many CAM users have questions about safety and effectiveness. Others rely upon word-of-mouth referrals from family and friends.

Although CAM is often seen negatively in society, most users report positive feelings towards CAM. People who use CAM are happier and healthier than those who don’t. This is true regardless age, gender and race.

An overwhelming majority of Americans are familiar with some form of complementary or alternative medicine. 95% of adults use CAM at least once in their lives. According to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health – NCCIH, approximately 40,000,000 visits were made to CAM providers alone in 2010.

The NCCIH estimates that 10 percent of the U.S. population uses chiropractors, massage therapists, acupuncturists, naturopaths, and/or osteopaths.3 By comparison, only 2 percent of the population uses medical doctors.

In 2013, the American Medical Association reaffirmed its support for integrative medicine. It acknowledged that integrative medicine should be integrated into the clinical practice of physicians to best meet the needs and expectations of patients.

The Institute of Medicine published a landmark 2007 report called “Relating Constraints” that concluded that there was no evidence to support the claim that any particular CAM intervention can prevent, treat, cure, or cure cancer.

Despite this conclusion, CAM continues to grow in popularity. The 2008 number of CAM practitioners increased 8 percent compared with 2007.

Recent research found that nearly half of respondents used CAM in their primary healthcare routine.

CAM therapies include natural products, mind-body practices, manipulative techniques, energy healing modalities, exercise, dietary supplements, and other approaches.

Many CAM treatments are used primarily for pain relief. However, they can also be used to improve mood, sleep quality, stress reduction, and immunity.

Acupuncture can, for example help with chronic back pain, anxiety and depression, improve immune function as well as promote weight loss.

Many CAM treatments draw on Ayurvedic and Chinese traditional medicine. These roots can be traced back thousands of decades.

For example, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) originated 5,000 years ago and has been practiced in China since ancient times.

TCM has remained an important component in health care even though it was not until the middle of 1800s that Western science became popular.

TCM treatment is now used by over 70% of American citizens.

Yoga is another popular CAM remedy. Yoga was developed in India circa 5000 B.C. Yoga is now widely accepted worldwide.

Yoga has gained popularity due to its physical, mental, as well as spiritual benefits.

Yoga can relieve stress, improve flexibility, and increase strength.

Although limited scientific research has been done, yoga may have beneficial effects on sleep33.

Other CAM treatments, like meditation, homeopathy and aromatherapy are also gaining acceptance in mainstream medical practice.

One of the most common types of CAM used today is herbal medicine.

Herbal medicines are made up of herbs, spices flowers, seeds fruits, nuts, bark, leaves and roots.

These drugs are frequently considered safer than pharmaceutical drugs and are popularly used by consumers.

The U.S. National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health estimates that about 90 million Americans use some form of complementary/alternative medicine.

According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), 45% of adult cancer patients used alternative medicine during their treatment.

The National Institutes of Health estimates that 60% of patients with cancer use CAM, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that about 50% of all cancer survivors report using CAM.

In fact, according to a recent study, 51% of cancer survivors reported using at least one type of CAM.

Only 8% of these people discussed the use of this medication with their doctors.

This is a serious problem with healthcare delivery because there is not enough communication between conventional medical practitioners and CAM users.
