Question Hello,
First of all, thank you for making yourself available for questions. I enjoy reading about alternative medicine and alternative health practices of this sort but I guess, being new to finding things on the internet, I have difficulty finding resources for reading about alternative health practices. Can you direct me to a few websites that you would suggest for learning more and/or keeping up with the latest information? I'd love to read more about it all.
Answer Hi Richard,
There are a number of good resources on the web, but it depends what you are looking for.
National center for complementary and alternative medicine is a good source for summaries and explanations for CAM treatments.
ITMonline.com has essays about Chinese medicine for the Chinese medicine professional.
Acufinder.com has many essays about acupuncture and Chinese medicine.
Also, I like to keep up a blog, AlbanAcupuncture.com/blog, which has information about TCM and acupuncture.
