OK, this was just a random thought I had and it doesn't play to either political party yet, so I thought I'd throw it out there to anyone who knows something about the health care cirsis. What would you think about "alternative medicine" helping lower the costs? The argument that tort reform is necessary is a logical one and the idea that the government should pay for more of it is fine and all, but I don't mean to start a whole thread on Bush vs. Kerry on the topic. I just wonder if things like acupuncture/acupressure, Electro Dermal Screening, herbal remedies, Amish medicine, massage therapy, etc would help lower some of the costs if they can be proven to work. Herbs are a heck of a lot cheaper than prescription drugs, often even after the copay. But it's such a huge business now that it would take consumer demand more than government intervention to fix things.
By the way, we had a member of our gym claim that his wife was cured of cancer through Electro Dermal Screening (EDS, for now). They place these little electrical nodees on pressure points and measure how strong the energy flow is. Then they plug it into a computer with a whole bunch of vitamins and herbs and stuff and see how the intake of some of these medicines would alter the flow of energy. Then they create the medicine, tailor-made, for you, and voila. I've only met them after she was cured, but I have no reason to disbelieve them, especially having seen some of the pressure points stuff from my instructor.
What do you think? Start using alternative medicine as an alternative to prescription drugs and frequent doctor's appointments? Think about it...it wsa just a thought, but I hope I'm on to something.
