Why Choose Alternative Medicine?

Alternative Medicine encompasses many therapies.  Most notable are:  Naturopathic, Homeopathic, Chiropractic, Herbs, Vitamins, Reflexology, Acupuncture, Ayurvedic and Traditional Chinese Medicine. 

Health is Your Choice

Alternative Medicine is on an upward swing, people are taking health care into their own hands. A good example is if you have high cholesterol; your doctor say lets try a diet.  The diet does not work and puts you on to a prescription that should take care of the problem.  Your regular family practitioner does not try and find out what is causing the high cholesterol. 

Alternative Medicine doctor always wants to know WHY.

Why do you have high cholesterol, are you eating the wrong foods, too much stress, liver malfunction, just what is causing the problem.  Alternative Medicine seeks to find a reason for the medical condition does not just cover the illness up with a pill.

Allopathic Medicine
Alternative medicine is also tried when Allopathic Medicine fails, and there is no where else to turn.  Time and time again, you hear stories how how herbs have helped, Acupuncture has relieved pain, and that a Naturopath informs you that you don't have Chrones Disease but you are allergic to wheat.

Alternative Medicine - Natural Medicine
Alternative Medicine is us, taking control of the way we live and the choices of how to be in charge of our own health.  Think about it, who knows our   body, the best. We know our  body the best. 
In fact did you know that the 6th reason for death in this country is pharmaceutical drugs.  Not abusing them, but the wrong prescription,  too strong of dose, or  allergic reaction to the drug.
We are prescribed an antibiotic but it does not work.  Why?  The bacteria has become mutant and resistant to the antibiotic.  We are given a stronger antibiotic and our bodies end up fighting Super Viruses. 

Alternative medicine rebuilds, restores, and supports our body.

In 1998 a study showed that 3 out of 5 people in the United States use some form of alternative medicine. Whether it was going to a Chiropractor, Acupuncturist, Massage Therapist, Naturopath,  Herbalist, or taking vitamins, herbs, homeopathic remedies, or using an old folk remedy. Alternative medicine is again becoming paramount in the main stream of healing.  Complimentary medicine is an important part of taking our health into our own hands, and working with a doctor.
