La medicine Alternative (document en anglais)

For thousands of years, a lot of the medicine science has been a source of mysteries. Sometimes, someone heals from something and nobody knows how it was done. Sometimes, it's achieved with the regular medicine and sometimes, you hear of an alternative kind of medicine that work as good as the scientific one. Not only is it more common than you think, but it now has a firm place in today’s world. Certain therapies not formerly thought of as legitimate medical treatments are now being used on a more frequent basis to treat a variety of disease, quite often with endorsements from the medical community. A couple of examples of alternative medicine you may have heard before and are considered alternative are Massage therapy, Hydrotherapy, Acupuncture, meditation and many more. Many of these treatments are not only used to treat many common health problems, but they are also used by people all over the world in order to achieve a feeling of well-being. In fact, in other parts of the world, many of these treatments are widely used as preventative medicine or a normal part of everyday life.

For thousands of years, the treatments considered alternative today were standard practice. And now, as people become more and more dictated by our Western healthcare, they are once again turning to these optional therapies when in a health crisis, or have nowhere else to turn.

There are thousands of people around the world who prefer to take advantage of the natural effects that alternative medicine and natural therapies have to offer, rather than instead of taking synthetic drugs to cure or prevent diseases.

Although herbal remedies should still be taken under the supervision of a qualified professional, it has a lot of benefits compared to most prescription drugs.

Alternative medicines and treatments have become part of our society today. While many of these therapies are meant to be used as a treatment for a health problem, some are used by people as a method of relaxation or reward. One of the most popular therapy among them is the massage therapy. Massage has become a daily thing into the routines of many people in today’s society for its stress reduction abilities . Studies have shown that massage therapy causes the body to release feel good endorphins which lift our mood and help us deal with stress in a much calmer manner.

As we move forward, we will continue to see a shift in modern healthcare as alternative medicine becomes more and more accepted and recognized as part of scientific medicine. Let's hope everything helps people to live longer and have a better life-quality...
