Promoting Responsible and Responsive Medical Practice
In the face of the world’s virtual acceptance of complementary medicine and alternative medicine almost on a level at par with conventional medicine, there comes a more compelling need to rationalize these three systems under the umbrella of integrative medicine. Complementary medicine and alternative medicine will benefit greatly from this integration as it can now be placed under a uniform and predictable regime of regulation that emphasizes the concept of public accountability and societal responsibility. This is easily the quickest way to rid these two systems of the scammers, bogus opportunists and quacks that have so long infested them.The process would also facilitate the application of uniform testing methods and procedures for alternative and complementary therapies, enabling medical practitioners to validly discard useless and harmful practices and remove any stain of doubt from the proven ones. Additionally, the union will allow conventional medicine to have a more holistic outlook towards human health and life.
One can therefore see the tremendous boon to humanity of an integrative medicine that takes the most effective therapies, methods and procedures of conventional allopathic medicine, alternative medicine and complementary medicine to generate a system that features the best that the East and the West can offer, from ancient to modern in terms of knowledge and practice on the healing and wellness of the complete human person.
