Abstract

The article focuses on the significant aspects of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). It mentions that some doctors are trained in CAM, but liaison would depend on the type of therapy. It states that the role of CAM was under investigation in England when the Parliamentary Science and Technology Committee had released a report about the funding of the British National Health Service (NHS) for homeopathy.
