[QUOTE="Lion Hearted Man, post: 61128028, member: 273999"] I don't want to make sweeping generalizations, but I have not run in to a field of "alternative" medicine that has stood up to any scrutiny. If a doctor's decision-making foundation is evidence-based medicine, I tend to let it pass if the doctor also incorporates "alt" med things if their patients really want them. The placebo effect is still the placebo effect in my opinion, and if patients want to delude themselves, have at it (as long as normal standard of care is still there). It's better that the doctor be involved in the process so the patient doesn't run off to a quack healer and never fills his/her prescriptions. Feel free to bring up some alternative medicine fields that you think stand up to scientific scrutiny. [/QUOTE]
