Alternative Healthcare Healthcare in America: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly

    • Medicine

Alternative medicine has become extremely popular these past few decades, yet there is very little collaboration between those who practice traditional western-style healthcare and those who practice the alternative disciplines. Dr. Cole covers all of the major alternative topics including naturopathy, herbal therapy, and spinal manipulation. He evaluates the quality of the evidence which may or may not support them, he discusses some of the concerns all who seek alternative therapies should be aware of, and he articulates why integrative healthcare – rather than alternative healthcare – may be the best route for those who wish to pursue something other than traditional healthcare.
