  The vast choice of complementary therapies available today can often prove mind-boggling. Sylvia Thompson has compiled a comprehensive but easy-to-follow guide to these therapies that will prove invaluable in the home health library. Arranged in a unique format, 'Test-Driving Complementary Therapies' will show you: * What the therapy is * How it works * The conditions it treats * An advocate's perspective on the therapy * A first-timer's perspective * and finally, the view of a medical doctor. Among the thirty or so therapies covered are Acupuncture, The Bowen Technique; The Buteyko Method; Chiropractic; Colonic Hydrotherapy; Cranio-sacral Therapy; Herbal Medicine; Homeopathy; Manual Lymphatic Drainage; Nutritional Therapy; Osteopathy; Rebirthing and Spiritual Healing. Also included is an overview of the expected qualifications and lists of the international associations of the particular therapy.
