Alternatives following the next post in of beautiful I think that it is time to we spend them on so-called alternative or natural therapies from this blog a series of stories, with a critical and scientific point of view.

To day in the faculties of medicine begins to see course of complementary therapies when until a few years ago they were taken as healers but because conventional medicine this type of therapies are beginning to see as a part of treatment for the patient to follow it is because you are looking for the because of the problem of the disease taking intoaccount the patient aspects such as his work, habits, food, and can associate all what ails this looking for education to treat evil afflicting and thus reaching the penalty

clarify first of all to so-called alternative therapies are not in the plans of the faculties of medicine, medicine and dentistry and health sciences of the State. What is this? good, among many reasons, and leaving aside that a medical student not can study more even, a which normally are treatments.

For example, chiropractic is not recognized by the medicine as a discipline (like for example Chinese traditional medicine), but if recognized effectiveness of therapies (after it was demonstrated and explained in conclusive clinical trials and then be approved in bibliographic reviews) as acupuncture or chiropractic massage, medicine explains without resorting to meridians ”, chakra ”, points of energy ”, etc. In other words, under so much straw ”, usually useful techniques and invasive that the medicine can not be used.As dato, so far have not even been electives, but elective equivalent to medicine and the films ”, literature and medicine ”, etc.

On the exposed classification, I disagree with the Tai Chi and dance to be an alternative therapy, are as therapeutic as practicing capoeira or any other type of physical exercise. In turn it include a series of pseudosciences such as homeopathy and derivatives (flowers of bach, etc.) and finally it also departing the Eastern philosophies, i.e., Feng Shui is not therapeutic and medicinal, is an art or science based on Oriental philosophies, which perhaps can affect health. What would something:

* alternative therapies and non-invasive s: chiropractic massage, osteopathy, acupuncture, etc.

* Healthy sports practices: Tai Chi, Yoga, pilates, etc.

* Pseudosciences (or disciplines rejected by contemporary medicine): homeopathy, was, bioenergetics, Kinesiology applicata, etc.
