Alternative Therapy/Therapists
ALTERNATIVE THERAPY is the use of natural therapy and medicines to restore and maintain health. Dating back to 420 B.C., around the time of Hippocrates, alternative therapy is also considered a practice beyond the realm of conventional modern therapy - naturopathy, chiropractic, Ayurvedic, homeopathy, acupuncture and so many other alternative medicine treatments are steadily in demand and on the rise.
Because our bodies are composed of chemical and physical reactions, holistic practitioners affirm that illness is not directly caused by pathogens such as viruses or bacterium; instead is the consequence of the body's reaction (in an effort to shield and heal itself) to a pathogen. Naturopathic and holistic therapists assist potential clients through alternative therapy by plainly alleviating symptoms of disease. Alternative therapy can treat most conditions like headaches, sore throats, flu and cold, indigestion, ear infections, dermatitis, urinary tract infections, sprains and strains. Some chronic conditions such as migraines, autoimmune disorders, cardiovascular disease, arthritis, cancer, muscle-skeletal pain, depression, stress, and even pregnancy and childbirth may be treated with alternative therapy as well.
Alternative therapy teaches proper nutrition in conjunction with vitamin and mineral supplements. Plants and herbs are commonly used in alternative therapy to treat illness, as well as remedies produced from animals and minerals. Hydrotherapy and hypnotherapy are also utilized in alternative therapy for maximum benefits. All in all, alternative therapy improves mental, emotional, and physical health. It encourages psychic and spiritual growth, and an overwhelming sense of wellness.
