Can alternative medicine save your life?

Posted on Sep 2nd 2007 3:39PM by Martha Edwards
I have respect for alternative medicine, but many people close to me have dismissed it as 'hogwash' and 'snake oil'. But a faith in alternative medicine has been known to save lives, at least according to the survivors who believe in it. Take this article, for example. It documents the lives of four women who credit alternative medicine with saving their lives. One had ovarian cancer, one needed metal rod to support her spine, one suffered from chronic pain and one kept her cystic fibrosis at bay.

What do you think about alternative medicine? Can it save your life? I think the key here is your attitude -- if you're convinced alternative medicine won't do anything for you, it won't. But faith is a powerful thing and if you believe in the path you've chosen, I think the body is capable of so-called miracles.
