There are many reasons a person chooses alternative medicine health care.  Maybe they were raised to believe alternative medicine is better or maybe they have had a bad experience with a regular M.D. or hospital or maybe they just want to explore other avenues along with traditional medicine.  Take these quotes into consideration...

"Nature, time and patience are the three great physicians."   Bulgarian Proverb

"Nature keeps us well, do not resist her!"  Henry David Thoreau

"The first wealth is health."  Ralph Waldo Emerson

"There is in all things...a hidden wholeness."  Thomas Merton

"Drugs are not always necessary, belief in recovery is."  Norman Cousins

All great thoughts to ponder when considering alternative medicine health care.
