I think its common sense th ...

But what, really is alternative medicine? What are the methods and practices of those doctors who are considered alternative practitioners? Are these methods effective? And are they safe? Our modern culture holds an affinity for nature, which may be a reason for the growing popularity of naturopathy. Naturopathy is a medicine that was conceived in the United States about a century ago. It is somewhat of a smorgasbord of medical ...
