EXAMPLES OF ALTERNATIVE MEDICINES

ALTERNATIVE MEDICINES DEFINITION
Acupuncture It is a form of energy medicine where long thin needles
are inserted to specific parts of the body to affect the
energy flow. Acupuncture is believed to treat
musculoskeletal dysfunctions.

Ventosa cupping massage This procedure is done by placing inverted glasses that
therapy have flames from burning cotton, on specific points in the
body. It is believed to relieve muscle and joint pains.

Reflexology Like acupuncture, reflexology focuses on treating

specific disorders through massaging of the soles of
the feet.

Acupressure Acupressure uses the same technique as that of

acupuncture. The only difference is that acupressure
does not use needles but hands to apply pressure on
certain points of the body.
Nutrition Therapy Nutrition therapy approaches treatment of a medical
condition by providing a tailored diet for the patient.
 Consumers receive health information, products, and services from various sources;
thus, individuals may be prone to frauds. An example of which is quackery.

Quackery, a form of a health fraud, is any advertisement, promotion, or sale of products

and services that have not been scientifically proven safe and effective (Meeks, et al, 2011). It is
being operated by a quack. A quack is an individual that has little or no professional qualifications
to practice medicine. He/She also pretentiously uses meaningless medical jargon and relies on
scare tactics, paranoid accusations, and quick fixes.

There are three major characteristics of health quackery (Schaler & Carroll, undated).
E. Discussing new First, it is a big business. A huge amount of money is spent on fraudulent health products and
