One of the transformations facing health care in the twenty-first century is the safe, effective, and appropriate integration of conventional, or biomedical, care with complementary and alternative medical (CAM) therapies, such as acupuncture, chiropractic, massage therapy, herbal medicine, and spiritual healing. In Healing at the Borderland of Medicine and Religion, Michael H. Cohen discusses the need for establishing rules and standards to facilitate appropriate integration of conventional and CAM therapies. The kind of integrated health care many patients seek dwells in a borderland between the physical and the spiritual, between the quantifiable and the immeasurable, Cohen observes. But the present environment fails to present clear rules for clinicians regarding which therapies to recommend, accept, or discourage, and how to discuss patient requests regarding inclusion of such therapies. Focusing on the social, intellectual, and spiritual dimensions of integrative care and grounding his analysis in the attendant legal, regulatory, and institutional changes, Cohen provides a multidisciplinary examination of the shift to a more fluid, pluralistic health care environment.

Alternative Medicine

The University of North Carolina Press

Complementary and Alternative Medicine therapies (or CAM as it is called for short), such as acupuncture and traditional oriental medicine, chiropractic, naturopathy, massage therapy, herbal medicine, and mind-body therapies, are growing in popularity and usage. This trend has raised concern among consumers, doctors and lawyers about the legal ramifications of seeking, referring and using CAM therapies. This book provides essential guidance for those wishing to understand the legal context in which they advise clients, integrate CAM therapies into conventional medical practice, refer patients to CAM practitioners, or use such therapies themselves.
