From ayurveda to yoga, complementary and alternative medical practices are in common use today. All mental health practitioners need to understand how these treatments actually work--and how they might supplement or conflict with conventional therapies. This is the first book to explain for therapists the most popular forms of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). Each chapter deals with a different modality. Subjects include: acupuncture, aromatherapy, ayurveda, biofeedback, chiropractic, dance movement therapy, herbals and biologically based practices, hypnosis, massage therapy, meditation, music therapy, reiki, spirituality and prayer, and yoga.
