Answers:
Sad to say, but many people are still unaware of the benefits available through alternative medicines and treatments.

Times are indeed changing, and the movement toward a healthier and more natural lifestyle is constantly gaining ground. But there will always be resistance and scepticism, even within the medical field. It will be difficult to keep from getting discouraged.

If this should become your choice of careers, I wish you the best. But don't just be a student of alternative medicine, become a teacher. We need to be better educated of this lifestyle.Health Question & Answer

Oh, I believe there is a large demand coming. Conventional medicine is the "new kid" so to speak. While there is an absolute reason for conventional medicine in some cases. Alternative medical practices have been used for hundreds of years and alot of them for thousands. I think that people are starting to realize that keeping the whole body functioning properly is much more important than treating the symptoms. Some people argue on behalf of conventional medicine. I say whatever makes you happy stick with it and for me it's alternative medicine. If you have any questions, feel free to email me.Health Question & Answer

I guess it depends on where you live. But I'm in California, and I must say that most people believe in it. And it seems most people are going that way, more so than "traditional" medicine. I think alternative medicine is the way of the future. Because I think people are tired of taking pills for everything. It's gotten out of hand, and people are looking for alternatives, like alternative medicine. I say go for it! It's saved my life and gotten my son off of meds for his asthma and allergies.Health Question & Answer
