What is Alternative Medicine?
Theoretically, alternative medicine is any form of medicine that does not fit with in the scientific framework of western medicine
In the United States, alternative medicine is any form of medicine that has not been accepted as scientifically valid by the American Medical Association and the United States Government.
If you are interested in using alternative medicine, either for a specific problem, or simply improve your overall health, it’s probably best to first research what kinds of alternative medicine you are interested in, and speak with you doctor about whether or not she will be willing to work with an alternative medicine practitioner.
Then find a practitioner who has had training in that specific area of alternative medicine.
Most forms of alternative medicine are not licensed in the United States, so ask where they went to school, and how long they have been practicing.
Then they can work with your doctor to make sure you get the care you need, without any unexpected side effects.
