In the strictest terms, alternative medicine refers to medical practices, techniques and remedies that are not necessarily verified by neutral scientific research. Alternative medicine often depends on traditional methods and remedies that are not from or generally used within Western medical practices. They are not part of conventional, science-based Western medical practices, or taught in most medical schools. Alternative medicine may involve chiropractic, massage, acupuncture or other traditional Chinese remedies and practices, Ayurvedic medical techniques and methods derived from traditional Hindu practices, and a number of other methods. Nutritional additives and herbal remedies from a variety of cultures and traditions may be employed. The most common alternative medical practices in the U.S include traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, Ayurvedic medicine, homeopathy, and chiropractic medicine. Alternative medicine may be practiced as part of a holistic, or complementary medical practice that combines scientific Western medical practices, techniques, methods and theories with more traditional non-Western medical practices, methods, techniques and remedies. Increasingly, medical students in conventional M.D. programs are also studying alternative medicine and traditional practices as an adjunct to more conventional therapies, with particular emphasis on traditional Chinese medicine, and the closely related practice of acupuncture. Currently, conventional Western medical practitioners are increasingly incorporating alternative medicine as part of a holistic treatment regimen. That means there is a great deal of potential for careers in alternative medicine. This is an excellent time to start thinking about a career in alternative medicine and medical therapies. Education can prepare you for a career in acupuncture, a doctor of oriental medicine, or chiropractic medicine, and possibly working as part of a holistic medical team. Your local community college may very well have certificates and degree programs in oriental medicine, chiropractic therapy, acupuncture, or therapeutic massage, many of which only require a high school diploma or GED for enrollment in a program.
