Alternative medicine has always been popular in Eastern societies; for example, treatments like Fire Cupping originate from China and over time have becoming increasingly popular in the West. According to a study in 2007, Britons spent £191 million on alternative medicine in that year alone and has been suggested that that figure has gone up by 32% in the past five years.

Similarly, the NHS will refer to this form of medicine as ‘Complementary’, which shows that they no longer see it as a threat to their form of health care.…

The general philosophy behind non-alternative medicine or modern medicine is that medical therapy or treatment should be based on science. Physicians of modern medicine must have college degrees from an accredited school and be board certified to practice medicine. Many allopathic physicians become family practitioners, internists, or generalists while most specialize in other medical fields. These practices are watched and regulated by safety commissions and health insurance providers. COM physicians and specialists generally follow a reactive and one-dimensional approach. They focus more on the paperwork, symptoms, curing the disease, or illness. COM physicians’ goals are to…
