Abstract des Autors

Many active patients and athletes use alternative medical therapies when conventional medicine fails to relieve their musculoskeletal symptoms. Research is expanding, and medical organizations and schools, insurers, and physicians are exploring the efficacy of these alternatives. Profiled here are several of the alternative therapies that are popular with athletes: acupuncture, chiropractic, hyperbaric oxygen, magnet therapy, massage, and relaxation techniques. Also included are tips on how to talk with patients about alternative therapies and resources for further information. Verf.-Referat
