Why You need to Attend Alternative Medicine Conferences

What Is Alternative Medicine?

Most people are under the impression that Western medicine and the practices prescribed and implemented by its proponents have no shortcomings whatsoever. This is however far from the fact of the matter. In reality, Western medicine is plagued by the fact that very few of its practices have any real historical backing to them. This has resulted in a system that is driven by research-based pharmaceuticals and therapeutic practices, that –

 

●     Take too long to develop, ascertain, and very, as well as,

    ●  Become increasingly ineffective as the conditions and ailments that they are meant to treat, continue mutating, and evolving. 

Although this is just one of the very few shortcomings of most modern medical practices that are more or less based on the diagnostic approaches and therapeutic methodologies developed by medical scientists and researchers over the course of the last hundred years, it also happens to be the most significant of all drawbacks of Western medicine.

 

In the wake of this global realization (that Western medicine has several shortcomings that cannot possibly be overcome by sustained research and experimentation, but only by the adoption of alternative health strategies), alternative health practices that have their roots in medicinal traditions practiced by ancient cultures for millennia, are increasingly being delved into by many modern-day physicians, doctors, nurses, medical researchers, pharmacologists, and several other professionals from the medical and healthcare fields. Some of the most common alternative health traditions that such professionals are showing their interest in include - Chinese or Oriental medicinal practices such as Acupuncture, Indian practices such as Ayurveda, Homeopathy, as well as other Greek and European-based practices like Naturopathy.

 

What Are The Major Domains Of Alternative Medicine?

On delving deeper into alternative medicine, one will come across the branches of major domains of this healthcare philosophy, which include -

 

●     Energy-Based Alternative Medicine

Numerous ancient cultures believe in the concept of 'body energies', which basically suggests that the human body is comprised of several energies. These energies although subtle in nature play a vital role in causing and treating ailments and maladies. Medicinal therapies that focus on setting the levels of these energies right are divided into two types, namely - Biofield therapies and Bioelectromagnetic-based therapies. While Bioelectromagnetic-based therapies include treatments such as light therapy, electromagnetic therapy, and sound energy therapy, Biofield therapies comprise treatments such as therapeutic touch, qi gong, and Reiki. 

 

●     Mind-Body Based Alternative Medicine

Apart from the belief that body energies have a role to play in causing and treating common illnesses and diseases, numerous ancient cultures also associate the wellness of the mind with good health. This is something that is also partly echoed by practices originating from Western medicine such as Psychology, Psychiatry, etc. Some of the most common therapeutic techniques based on this mind-body medicine philosophy include prayer, hypnosis, meditation, etc.

 

●     Biologically-Based Alternative Medicine

This domain of alternative medicine focuses on the nutritive or pharmaceutical aspects of traditional healthcare techniques practices by ancient cultures. Ancient cultures are well-known for their secret knowledge of medicinal herbs, spices, plants, and concoctions (that are all formulated naturally from substances occurring in nature)

 

Why Is Alternative Medicine Important?

As already stated above, Western medicine has several drawbacks that have not yet been addressed or rectified. The only way to change this is if newer and more informed treatment methodologies that are backed by thousands of years of practical usage are adopted widely. Up and coming healthcare professionals who wish to enjoy successful careers, by gaining the recognition for treating their patients well and enjoying high rates of treatment success must perforce learn about what alternative medicine is, what the most effective and common branches and philosophies within alternative medicine are, and how to implement these alternative medicine theories within their own medical practices.
