Bridging the gap between conventional and complementary medicine, this book offers a starting point for understanding complementary health care and describes both complete cultural systems and individual approaches and techniques. It is designed to enable students to get a grasp of the basics and to help students and practitioners alike to see more clearly approaches to aspects of medicine which are not based wholly on traditional Western methods.

The basis and contexts of complementary and alternative medicine: introduction - characteristics of complementary and alternative medicine; cultural context of complementary and alternative medicine; historical context of complementary and alternative medicine; contemporary context of complementary and alternative medicine - the concept of vitalism, integrated mind-body medicine. Part 2 Complementary therapies: systems - homoeopathy; osteopathy; chiropractic; Western herbalism; approaches - healing touch, aromatherapy, light therapy. Part 3 Integrated and traditional systems: naturopathy; traditional Chinese medicine; Qi Gong; Maharashi Ayur Veda; classical Ayur Veda; Curanderismo; global health traditions.
