I do think there are control and power, self-empowerment issues w/alternative medicine, and there's also a lack of guidance because it seems that alternative docs and more conventional docs just don't talk to each other, at least not until alternative treatments make their way into mainstream medical journals.
Also...some alternative docs are a bit...how do I put this nicely...questionable? There's also the lack of access to contend with. I do Orthomolecular. There are very few, old school OM practitioners around. OM made inroads into psychiatry in the 60s and 70s and then...mainstream psychiatry shrugged OM off. That was that, more or less.
