Alternative Care
ALTERNATIVE CARE
Alternative care attempts to cure the problem and get to the root of issues, with virtually no side effects. No cover up of symptoms with drugs and no cutting out of valuable parts of the body. Sometimes, the care can take longer, because the root causes have been there a long time. There may even be more than one root contributing to ill health. However, seeking the wisdom of Jesus first is wise, He is the Great Physician and knows what you need, where the problem is coming from, how to fix it and even what physician to see if needed.
Alternative doctors care about treating the whole body, and elevating the patient’s health and not taking away from it or causing further damage.
ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE PHYSICIANS
Homeopath – A trained homeopath will either be a chiropractor, naturopath, osteopath or a medical doctor.
Note: If a physician recommends herbs along with homeopathy, they are not a fully trained homeopath. Herbs and homeopathic remedies cancel each other out.
​
Chiropractor – Trained in spinal and extremity care, nutrition, homeopathy, acupuncture, herbs and other alternative treatments. Some chiropractors offer only spinal care and some offer many of the above-listed treatments. Spinal care techniques vary from one physician to another. Find the chiropractor that best fits your needs. We are not all the same. Chiropractic is an amazing profession which deeply cares about the health and wellness of their patients.
​
Naturopathic – Trained in herbs, nutrition, homeopathy, some manipulation, alternative treatments, acupuncture and in some states prescription-only treatments. Another great profession whose priority is the health and wellness of their patients.
​
Osteopath – A doctor who prescribes meds as well as nutrition, homeopathic remedies, herbs and some manipulation. However, the majority treat predominantly from the orthodox medical approach.
