Complementary and alternative medicine encompasses literally dozens of therapeutic practices, approaches, and philosophies, ranging from acupuncture and herbal medicine to spiritual healing and homeopathy. Some of these therapies, such as acupuncture, are now being used in mainstream medicine. Many more are still unproven and potentially unsafe.
