With the medical landscape shifting dramatically into patient-centered care, the use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) is a topic on which health care providers must have a firm knowledge base. Studies have shown that patients increasingly are using CAM but will not discuss it with their health care provider unless asked specifically about it in a way that indicates that the topic is a comfortable and acceptable one. This unique text introduces a broad range of therapies, provides basic information about which ones show evidence of effectiveness, and uses detailed case studies to illustrate how CAM can be integrated into conventional practice.
