Acupuncture / Does It Work ? [ send me this paper ] An 8 page research paper exploring the efficacy of the Chinese use of acupuncture. It is only during the last two decades that Western culture has begun to accept this 5,000 year-old treatment procedure. The fact that the reasons acupuncture works in so many cases cannot be scientifically identified has created barriers to the use of this therapy in Western medicine. Numerous research studies reported in this paper clearly reveal that acupuncture is more effective than traditional Western medicine in a number of conditions. The writer offers evidence of the benefits of this ancient Chinese medical treatment process. Bibliography includd. Filename: Acupunc.wps
Acupuncture--Its Time Has Come [ send me this paper ] A 5 page essay that argues that acupuncture should be used more extensively and preferred over drug therapy. The traditional stance of Western culture and Western medicine is to regard ancient Chinese medicine, with its herbal remedies and needles, as superstition. However, contemporary medical practitioners are beginning to realize that this attitude is not only ethnocentric, it is simply wrong. Western pharmacologically based medicine can do wonderful things, but it can also cause extremely adverse drug reactions. On the other hand, there is a growing body of empirical research that verifies that alternative medicine, with techniques such as acupuncture, offer safe, effective means for bypassing the dangers entailed in extensive pharmacology.

Alternative Approaches: EDTA Chelation Therapy [ send me this paper ] A 5 page paper discussing the use of intravenous ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA) for the treatment of atherosclerosis and other conditions. Chelation therapy has been researched and used for more than 40 years, but it continues to be condemned by the medical establishment that cannot profit from it as much as it can from bypass surgery, hypertension prescriptions and cholesterol-lowering drugs. Medicare and private insurers prefer to pay >$40,000 for bypass surgery rather than paying less than $4000 for chelation therapy. The situation is not seen as holding any promise for change in the near future. Individuals will need to continue to seek out chelation therapy on their own and pay for their own treatments.
