Does Alternative Medicine Work?
The growth of alternative medicine over the past few decades has been rapid and the number of alternative medicine practitioners grows by the day. With thousands of private complementary health practitioners and an increase in GPs offering alternative therapies there is no doubting its popularity and continued movement toward professional healthcare validation. However the question about alternative medicine remains - does it work? Acupuncture, reflexology and therapeutic touch are now non-conventional therapies people will consider having when thinking beyond conventional medical practices.
Certainly if you posed the question of whether alternative medicine works to people in the Far East the answer would be a resounding 'yes'. Many alternative medicine techniques and therapies began in places like China and India centuries ago and are integral to their healthcare systems. With that degree of use and such a rich history there must be a high level of confidence in its effectiveness.
If you speak to many physicians the argument against alternative medicine is that it is not proven to work. This is a somewhat blinkered opinion as it is based on a comparison with traditional pharmaceutical drug testing. Before drugs can be prescribed they must go through rigorous clinical trials using a broad cross-section of society and performed over a period of years under the supervision of trained research teams. The industry goes to great lengths to highlight this clinical process and show that the evidence is scientific fact. But alternative medicine has been put through equally rigorous tests by research teams around the world; it's just not as well documented.
Only now are we beginning to see the outcomes of these tests as demand for alternative medicine increases. And as demand increases, so the clinical trials into complementary and alternative therapies will increase. We should also be careful to dismiss practices that have been used successfully for thousands of years in other countries.
Another argument against alternative medicine is that evidence is anecdotal and based purely on personal experience of a therapy. But then the same argument could be true of conventional drug treatment. It is only because a clinical trial has taken place that the drug is deemed to work for everyone. That's not always the case. How often has someone told you to take a certain drug for an ailment as it worked for them only to find that it didn't work for you? It's true that certain conditions require traditional treatment but that's not to say that alternative medicine cannot be used alongside it. A popular benefit with alternative medicine is that it doesn't have the nasty side-effects or discomfort that pharmaceutical drugs can have.
Alternative medicine is effective and can work for you
Alternative medicine is matter of choice. There are many therapies and techniques to choose from that can fit in with your ideas about health and well-being. Alternative medicine can help with a variety of conditions illnesses and approaches health in a holistic way. Concern for the body as a whole and the use of natural herbal remedies really can target a specific illness. So to answer the question - yes, alternative medicine does work if you find the therapy that works for you.
Medical expert Thomas Pretty looks into arguments surrounding the viability of alternative medicine and the testing that is used to prove its worth.

Alternative Remedies for when you aren’t Prepared

alternative remedies at home
It's a good feeling stocking your bathroom medicine cabinet up for everything you need for an everyday medical need - for insect bites, dandruff, indigestion or anything else. They do have lots of specialized over-the-counter stuff for every one of these things, and you could be tempted to buy them up. We all stock up this way to be ready for anything; in fact, we usually take it personally if there is a problem that we don't have the right remedy for. The problem is though, that you never seem to need these things when they are close at hand. Sometimes, it's when you're out on a trip with the family or when you are at a friend's house and a kid gets hurt that you really wish you had the exact right materials with you. That's where it becomes useful to earn a few improvisational skills - using alternative remedies when you need to. What follows is a list of new uses for stuff we all have around the house or in our bags - to help you improvise, when the need strikes.
Everyone loves tea tree oil these days - we use it for athlete's foot, for acne, for anything that needs a little antifungal or antibacterial action. What people often don't know though is that tea tree oil is a great remedy against dandruff. So the next time you're with a friend on a trip and they seem to have forgotten their anti-dandruff shampoo, throw them your bottle of tea tree oil; a teaspoonful added to regular shampoo should turn it antidandruff. And on that same trip, if one of you seems to have a little foot odor problem from maybe sitting in the car with their shoes on for too long on a warm day, how about having them rub their feet down with a cloth soaked in vodka. It happens to contain some pretty strong alcohol, and it will easily kill all the odor causing bacteria, fungus and other nasties (that should be some trip - smelly feet and vodka).
So you're on a day out with your friends shopping, and one of you is really bothered with a headache. It can happen - too much walking, too much stress. Stress actually makes us reflexively tighten our jaw and this can starts off a tension headache. Fish out a pencil and ask your friend to hold it between their teeth without actually biting. It helps your muscles unclench and occupy themselves with something else. And the headache disappears.
People get blisters - women on their toes especially, when they pick shoes that are more pretty than they are comfortable. If that happens to you when you're out of the right cream for that, are there any alternative remedies in your bag? You do, if you have a little Listerine somewhere. Put a few drops of Listerine on the sore part couple of times a day, and you should be set. For aching feet, a frozen bottle of water can work wonders. Just put it on the ground and roll it with your foot.
Hiccups are common enough. But other than scaring a stuttering friend, what else do you have up your sleeve? Sugar, of course (no, not literally up your sleeve). Sugar helps the nervous system ease a misfiring nerve and calm a hiccup down right away. Now these should help you be the go-to person in your circle in a health emergency, shouldn't it?
