List As Many Cam (complementary And Alternative Medicine) Therapies As You Can Think Of?

By admin Posted in: alternative medicine

Now do you think there is a need to group these different therapies? why or why not

  1. Rhianna does Medicine Year 2 Says

    Group the different sCAM therapies? Yes, perhaps.In order of absurdity/implausibility..
    Quackery of the highest order:
    Homeopathy
    Reiki.
    Faith Healing
    Medium:
    Acupuncture
    Reflexology
    Low
    Herbal
    Chiropractic (Mr E style chiropractic would be a few categories up ^)
    UK trained Osteopaths’
    etc.
    Edit, I knew I was missing some, JLI. I think I’ve been a bit too lenient on Lighty. After his comments yesterday I feel we should bump him up to category 1. His entire mindset concerns me

  2. JLI Says

    I´ll add Iridology and ear candling to Rhianna´s list. I think I would place both of them in the top category (may bordering the medium category). Homeopathy tops the list.
    ETA:
    Yes Rhianna. Craniosacral therapy is definitely in category 1. I still remember the Canadian systematic review you posted last spring which he (Lighty) refused to read and which met all his points of speculated criticism. I can’t find the post, but here is the review: http://faculty.une.edu/com/jnorton/BCOHT…
