Course Description: Alternate Approaches to Healing This class is designed to introduce students to the major systems of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) in America. The subject will be explored through presentations by practitioners of acupuncture, chiropractic, homeopathy, hypnotherapy, massage therapy, mind-body medicine, and naturopathic medicine. Class sessions will also be devoted to questions of evaluation of efficacy of unconventional treatments, and models for integrating complementary and conventional practice. The course meets Fridays, 10:00-11:20. It is graded Credit/No Credit; the only requirement is attendance and a 3 to 5 page paper (due at the end of the quarter) that presents your reflections on the role of CAM in the American healthcare environment. |
