Chiropractic, Zentherapy, craniosacral treatments: what are they, and why are more of us turning to such alternative therapies?
The holistic health and wellness craze has led to a surge of interest alternative therapies; three Hong Kong-based practitioners explain what chiropractic, Zentherapy and craniosacral treatments involve
Holistic health and wellness were the buzzwords of 2019, and there was a boom in alternative treatments such as acupuncture, craniosacral therapy and chiropractic medicine.
Neal Miller, a Los Angeles-based certified acupuncturist, told Healthline Media that “In the past few years many hospitals have included TCM acupuncture to treat many conditions, Cleveland Clinic, UCLA and Kaiser to name a few. Today the referrals are often from medical doctors and other health care providers and institutions … more than half of my patients see me as their primary health care provider and all accept me as part of their health care team.”
While acupuncture and chiropractic treatments have become more acceptable, other alternative forms of medical treatment such as Zentherapy, Rolfing and craniosacral therapy are relatively new to mass knowledge.
