This opinion is one of the hardest one’s I have written so far, the reason im writing it is because a few people have asked me why I have a knife phobia and the only way to explain it is to write this opinion/review. When I was a lot younger than I am now, around the age of 9, every Friday night my Nan (mum’s mum) would come ...  Read the complete review

I think more and more people are turning to alternative medicine and treatments. I personally prefer to use alternative treatments, unless I break a bone or have to have an operation or something like that. I don't like to take prescrition medicine, the thought of getting addicted to tablets frightens me and the side effects can often ...  Read the complete review

Magnet therapy has been around for thousands of years, its not new at all. It isnt even really an alternative therapy even though that is how it is regarded now. The chinese swear by it, Folk have flocked to famous places where the magnetic properties of local spring water is healing and Cleopatra was known to bathe in liquid that was magnetised ...  Read the complete review

Having suffered from constant, chronic pain for over 14yrs now I am, and have always been, ready to take any help on offer.

For years I have been suffering with headaches and blocked sinuses which no Doctor to this day has been able to explain even alternative medicine doctors but what I have found is a sure fire cure for it in the form of PINE OIL. I did as said above go to see an alternative medicine Doctor at great personal cost to my bank balance but boy ...  Read the complete review

I can’t remember where I first heard about relexology, but as soon as I did I wanted to try it. I’ve always enjoyed having my feet masaged and pampered and I had a vague idea that reflexology was something like a luxurious foot massage. In actual fact, reflexology is an alternative treatment that is based on the principle ...  Read the complete review

Several weeks ago I had my first ever Indian Head Massage. A reflexologist friend of mine was taking her exams in IHM and I went along to the college to be her guinea pig. It was total, utter bliss. IHM originates from an holistic approach to health and wellbeing called Ayurveda (I think that's how you spell it). It's been used ...  Read the complete review

Exhale and share these toxins with all that may be around you. Clothing, curtains, furniture and carpet may retain the strong odour. Repeat as your habit dictates.

Firstly I must say that I am a bit abit concerned about the whole idea of 'alternative treatments' (or therapies.) The thing is that they can never be an alternative to professional medical advice from a qualified doctor. Abandoning a prescribed treatment or ignoring your doctor's advice could make your condition worse, or, ...  Read the complete review

I first used this alternative (alternative is not the right word, complementary is more suitable) medicine for strong migraines and period pains and they always have an excellent effect on me where normal medication would not do any single difference. I have been suffering from migraine for over 15 years now and despite taking several medication I ...  Read the complete review

Modern medicine is a miracle in and of itself. The immense power that it commands in today's society is testament to the power of myth and mystery. Our health beliefs have now become something akin to religion and the doctors and researchers its priests. The miracles that medicine claims to work are a far cry from the almost humble ...  Read the complete review

Four years ago at the age of 39 I had a heart attack. It came as a surprise, although there is a history of heart disease in our family. A year later I had a small stroke which left me unable to feel my right foot. I went back to work fairly quickly and still worked stupid hours despite my less than brilliant health. One day about 2 ...  Read the complete review

95 percent of Chines nationals don’t use Chinese medicine. I love that statistic. %95 percent of British people only use the National Health twice in their life. The second time is most definitely the last time if this lot in charge these days can help it. At the darkest moment most non-believers call for their Gods.The alternative ...  Read the complete review

~~The First Time It is ten years this month since I was first introduced to reflexology. My friend had just died and I was still staying at the hospice arranging the funeral etc. etc. At the hospice there were several 'alternative therapists' who offered their services free to residents. My friend had ...  Read the complete review

Alternative, eh? Well, this has got me thinking: I'm not a big fan of general medicinal practice, i.e. I don't pop nurofen by the handful, or dose myself with paracetemol at the first ouch of a headache. I tend to refuse antibiotics as well, as they have a rather dire effect on my body - after even a small prescription I am left ...  Read the complete review

Therapy, whether conventional or ‘alternative’ is all about making people feel better, and feeling better, of course, does not always hinge upon whether medical intervention has been utilised. A sunny day makes some of us feel brighter, more vibrant, a pay rise is the way to give some people a spring in their step! I find that when I ...  Read the complete review

Ok, I admit after seeing this category that I was somewhat lost as to what exactly the focus of it is meant to be. I also see that it has been around a few days now and only one other person has decided to tackle it, again no doubt because it is so vague. What exactly are we talking about here when we say "Alternative Treatment ...  Read the complete review
