Alternative Healthcare

Alternative healthcare refers to a variety of medical practices and treatments that are not typically considered part of conventional or mainstream medicine. These practices often emphasize holistic approaches to health, focusing on the body, mind, and spirit, and may include methods such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, chiropractic care, homeopathy, and meditation. Alternative healthcare often seeks to address the underlying causes of ailments rather than merely treating symptoms, and it may involve dietary changes, lifestyle modifications, and other natural interventions. The term is often associated with a belief in the body’s ability to heal itself and the importance of patient empowerment in the healing process.
