Is Complementary Medicine the Same
as Alternative Medicine? |
The
terms Complementary Medicine and Alternative Medicine get
used interchangeably, but they are not the same thing. However,
Complementary Medicine may use the same therapies as Alternative
Medicine. Complementary Medicine and Alternative Medicine
are described by the National Center for Complementary and
Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) as follows:
- Complementary Medicine is used together
with conventional medicine.
- Alternative Medicine is used in place
of conventional medicine.
Complementary Medicine, as well as
Alternative Medicine are categorized into five types of therapies:
Alternative Medical Systems, Mind-Body Interventions, Biologically
Based Therapies, Manipulative and Body-Based Methods, and
Energy Therapies. Complementary Medicine in the Alternative
Medical Systems category would use systems such as, Homeopathic
Medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine. In the Mind-Body
category a doctor may help control symptoms of a patient's
illness by using techniques like Meditation, Yoga, or Biofeedback.
The Biologically Based Therapies that may be used in Complementary
Medicine could consist of the doctor prescribing various dietary
supplements and herbal products. In the Manipulative and Body-Based
category, the doctor may refer you to a Chiropractor or Massage
Therapist. And finally, in the Energy Therapy category your
doctor who is practicing Complementary Medicine may use one
of two types of therapy: Biofield Therapy (Acupuncture, Qi
Gong, Reiki, and Therapeutic Touch) or Bioelectromagnetic-based
Therapies (Magnet Therapy, Polarity Therapy, and Light Therapy).

Now patients do not
have to choose between finding a doctor that practices conventional
medicine and one that practices alternative medicine. Complementary
Medicine uses both approaches. There are alternatives to pharmaceuticals
and healthier methods of controlling symptoms. For example,
in Biologically Based Therapy a doctor could include products
like VÄXA International's Deprex
or Extress, as opposed to Xanax or Valium.
Anti-anxiety pharmaceuticals like Xanax and Valium possess
side effects, such as drowsiness, fatigue and tiredness, memory
impairment, concentration difficulties, and it is not recommended
to drive or operate machinery while taking these drugs. VÄXA's
Deprex and Extress
are safe, all-natural alternatives and free of side effects.
