Many Ways to Health and Healing...

Echinacea Leaves

"Health, Youth, Wealth, Life, Faith..." Things many people are thankful for in their lives, and there are many ways toward their achievement.  While health many seem elusive, remedies can sometimes be found from unexpected sources.  Conventional Western medicine may work for some, whereas others may find relief only through acupuncture therapy, herbal remedies or massage, for instance.

Remedies, therapies and systems of healing can be combined into several different categories or classes. The following classification system was defined by the US Department of Health & Human Services, through the National Institutes of Health:

  • Conventional Medicine
    • Allopathy: practiced by MDs
    • Osteopathy: practiced by DOs
    • Chiropractic Medicine
    • Allied Health: for example Physical Therapy & Psychology
  • Complementary & Alternative Medicine (CAM)
    • Complementary Medicine: generally used in combination with conventional Western medicine
    • Alternative Medicine: generally used in place of conventional Western medicine
    • Whole Medical Systems
      • Homeopathy
      • Naturopathy
      • Chinese Medicine
      • Ayurvedic
      • Native American Medicine
    • Mind-Body Medicine
    • Biologically Based Practices
    • Manipulative and Body-Based Practices
    • Energy Medicine

The pages on this website aim to educate and inform readers regarding the "Complementary and Alternative Medicine" category.  However, some systems of healing and paths to health may fall outside of this particular classification system, and for this reason we include information on methods for self-discovery and self-awareness, including such systems as the Enneagram, and various disciplines of meditation, which play a role in Spiritual Wellness.
