I'm suffering from pain all over my body and the doctor said it could be fibromyalgia. I don't like tradicional drugs products, so I am looking for a natural one.

Shall i have reflexology or Indian head massage?

 

I suffer extreme paranoia and anxiety and i take medication. I still feel a bit yucky but i would like to try one of the above to take the edge off it instead of more drugs. Which would you recommend, if any? I want the best result for my time and money

Will the new health care system punish people with a healthy lifestyle?

 

The recent system does not cover anything that I really need, it punishes people with a healthy lifestyle. Someone like me (no drugs, no smoking, little alcohol) get nothing out of the health insurance.

People using alternative medicine, as chiropractors, acupuncture, mineral and herbal supplements, basically anything but big pharmacy traditional medications and surgery, have to pay full price. This is very unfair.

Basic needs like eyeglasses, contact lenses, hearing aids and dental should also be included.

Can a chiropractor fix my TMJ?

 

My jaw is killing me and I'm not sure what to do. I can barely open it to eat or yawn. What is the best cure? Chiropractor? Acupuncture? Hot/cold compress? Smoke a bunch of drugs? Help me out if you can.

my stomach is very sensitive…what will help it balance itself?

 

i have a very sensitive and weak stomach..(too much acid). ive tried chinese herbal medicine, acupuncture, mylanta, massage to try and heal my stomach. my stomach has been like this since highschool (im 21 now going on 22 in a couple of months) ive tried almost everything to make it not so sensitive! i want to find a more natural way to improve my stomach (no drugs)....would drinking lots of water daily and eating bread help my stomach since water will hopfully flush out some of my acid problem (i think) and bread absorbs liquids? please help! my stomach needs some help!

Why do people quote Quackwatch.org?

 

I realize there are a lot of scams out there with regards to natural health, but quackwatch claims that anything that doesn't require modern drugs to fix it is a scam. Massage, chiropractic, acupuncture...according to quackwatch are all crazy practices that have no health benefits.

I bet that more people are injured or killed every year by "real medicine" than by anything natural health practitioners do.

Dr. Barrett, qwackwatch's founder is a psychiatrist. He isn't even a board certified psychiatrist. He wants to put other forms of medicine down when all he does is ask "and how does that make you feel?" and "what was your relationship with your mother like?" Any decent listener can do that job.

So my question is, why do people rely so heavily on this joke of a website?

Buddy Holly, Jimi Hendrix, Andy Gibb, Kurt Cobain, Heath Leadger, The List Goes On Lives Ended Before Thirty?

 

Why is it that when talented lives shine bright before the public eye, that talent is cut short because of drink and/or drugs, why do some bright lights of the entertainment world succumb to foods and "comfort substances" which deplete and shorten your life when there are other life enhancing foods, social and medical practices & substances just as easily available such as acupuncture, Water therapy, herbal remedies, religion and so on, when times are tough and life is very stressful.

I look at people such as Whitney Houston and Michael Jackson as examples of whose religious beliefs helped pull them through some very tough personal challenges and whose unquestionable talents have brought joy and happiness to people all over the world.

I think it is very very sad when such bright talents are lost so early in life, in the way that Heath Ledger has been lost !

What is the best medicine ?

 

Is it Western conventional ? or Holistic? Natural Medicine? Acupuncture ? Chiropractic ? Homeopathy ? Herb? Vitamins ? To maintain mental and physical well being ? and when you get allergy, virus, and flue ?? I would think like Cancer, you would want to go see a Conventional doctor,...I have heard in th beginning, it was Eastern / Chinese / Indian Natural medicine was common, however, ever since FDA came along, it changed the Nation's entire BUSINESS practice by pushing DRUG company to make billions of $$$, and Western Doctor just give you diagnose and prescribe drugs....I heard its a money making scan? I am afraid who to trust and what really is IS the best treatment / approach for general health concern ??? What do YOU personally do about YOUR personal need ? Please share your thoughts, and experiences. Thanks.
You know, it is depend on WHERE you live and WHICH doctor (WESTERN) you go, you can LIVE OR DIE. This is also very scary, but all they gonna say is...SORRY. IN the end patient and their family and friends loose loved ones, no going back one he / she is dead due to ONE doctor basically get paid go home.

Has anyone recieved MIGRAINE RELIEF from the use of ACUPUNCTURE therapy?

 

I have tried diet changes and over 20 different migraine medications and I am currently on Topamax and Inderal. I would love to get off of these drugs and find a REAL cure, and not just hide the pain...which by the way, the meds don't even hide all of the headaches! Any other natural therapy worked for you; such as Cranial Sacral Therapy, Massages, etc.?

If you don’t believe in alternative medicine, why are you responding on this board?

 

I have looked at many questions and almost every one of them has people responding that are against whatever the person is doing. Even telling them they are chasing the latest snake oil or there is no such thing as a cure for ... Get real people there are cures for everything! The US government suppresses them because the drug companies would all be out of business. The politicians own stock in the drug companies. They don't make any money if you are not sick! Animals in the WILD don't get sick, have heartattacks, etc. They also don't consume drugs. The board is for alternative medicine. Be helpful or get out! Don't come in here dissagreeing with us about things you are not educated with.
