What is the difference between alternative medicine and conventional medicine?!
Question:
What is the difference between alternative medicine and conventional medicine?
It is my planned topic for my research paper. Please help me understand their difference.
Answers:
Conventional medicine (Allopathic medicine) is typically about treating and relieving symptoms. Alternative medicine covers many different types of medicine. Anything from naturopathic medicine, chiropractic medicine, accupuncture, accupressure, chinese medicine, herbal medicine, homeopathic medicine and lots more are all included in alternative medicine. Anything that isn't allopathic is alternative. I've had treatments from all of the above and a few more for various problems over the years. I think they all have a place in medicine and all have much to offer.
