Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM)

Alternative Medicine

Complementary & Alternative Medicine represents "a group of diverse medical and health care systems, practices and products that are not presently considered to be part of Conventional Medicine"   Thus the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) defines this discipline.  The NCCAM is itself one of 27 institutes in the government's National Institute of Health which is further a part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. This institute is actively working on validating many of these programs by use of strict scientific methods.  The ongoing research is exciting and relevant for all wellness coaching programs. 

Components of CAM

There are six forms of Alternative Complementary Health Medicine:

Effects of CAM

Although not all claims have been valid in the past, with more stringent study protocols, recent studies have clearly validated evidence that many techniques used in CAM are helpful in numerous conditions.  For example, there is clear evidence that psychological factors play a large role in the generation of Coronary Heart Disease and that CAM techniques can help in prevention and rehabilitation.  Other studies show that symptoms such as pain, immune function, wound healing are influenced or improved by use of CAM techniques.
