I would suggest that what are called complementary
therapies--acupuncture, homeopathy, and midwifery practices that differ
from obstetrical practices--are proper subjects for EBM and should be
studied and investigated in the same way as conventional allopathic drugs
and surgeries. These therapies may or may not be effective for a specfic
problem, but they do not operate in different realm. Many people feel
they've been helped by them.
I do agree that physicians should not prescribe or do therapies
in which they are not trained. Becky Sarah.
