Discussion: A senior doctor treats me, but other than medications with severe side effects, he has no solution for my condition. When I asked him about alternative therapies, he claimed I was risking unscientifically based therapies.

More and more doctors are recommending alternative therapies, and many hospitals have a department for alternative treatments. Yet, without a medical philosophy, some physicians see self-healing functional medicine as a threat rather than an opportunity.

The problem is that to recover from chronic diseases, it is necessary to treat the causes of the disease, which are usually not known in detail and entirely.
