Traditional medicine

Traditional medicine (also known as indigenous or folk medicine) comprises knowledge systems that developed over generations within various societies before the era of modern medicine. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines traditional medicine as "the sum total of the knowledge, skills, and practices based on the theories, beliefs, and experiences indigenous to different cultures, whether explicable or not, used in the maintenance of health as well as in the prevention, diagnosis, improvement or treatment of physical and mental illness."^[1]

In some Asian and African countries, up to 80% of the population relies on traditional medicine for their primary health care needs. When adopted outside of its traditional culture, traditional medicine is often called alternative medicine.^[1] Practices known as traditional medicines include Ayurveda,Siddha medicine, Unani, ancient Iranian medicine, Irani, Islamic medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, traditional Korean medicine, acupuncture,Muti, Ifá, and traditional African medicine. Core disciplines which study traditional medicine include herbalism, ethnomedicine, ethnobotany, andmedical anthropology.

The WHO notes however that "inappropriate use of traditional medicines or practices can have negative or dangerous effects" and that "further research is needed to ascertain the efficacy and safety" of several of the practices and medicinal plants used by traditional medicine systems.^[1] The line between alternative medicine and quackery is a contentious subject.

Traditional medicine may include formalized aspects of folk medicine, that is to say longstanding remedies passed on and practised by lay people. Folk medicine consists of the healing practices and ideas of body physiology and health preservation known to some in a culture, transmitted informally as general knowledge, and practiced or applied by anyone in the culture having prior experience.^[2] Folk medicine may also be referred to as traditional medicine, alternative medicine, indigenous medicine, or natural medicine. These terms are often considered interchangeable, even though some authors may prefer one or the other because of certain overtones they may be willing to highlight. In fact, out of these terms perhaps only indigenous medicine and traditional medicine have the same meaning folk medicine, while the others should be understood rather in a modern or modernized context.^[3]

Similarly, a home remedy is a treatment to cure a disease or ailment that employs certain spices, vegetables, or other common items. Home remedies may or may not have medicinal properties that treat or cure the disease or ailment in question, as they are typically passed along by laypersons (which has been facilitated in recent years by the Internet).

Non-Traditional Medicine.

Non traditional medicine is also known as alternative medicine and does not fall in the category of conventional medicine. Alternative medicine involves a wide range of practises which have an historical background and are not supported by scientific facts. Generally the types of non traditional medicine include acupuncture, Naturopathy, chiropractic, yoga, herbalism and homeopathy among others Some of these practises have diverse origins some of which date back to ancient times (Rees, 2001).. One can use non traditional medicine on its own or simply combine it with conventional medicine. Some medical doctors believe tradition al medicine is in effective (Larson, 2007). However it is important for people to consult before beginning treatment using non traditional medicine. Due to lack of evidence and repeated failure to pass test scientist classify alternative medicine as non-evidence based medicine.

Research methodology

The information contained in this paper was acquired through structured interviews with non-traditional medicine practitioners and patients in Louisiana. The purpose of the interview was to get the opinion of the practitioners and that of the patients.  This information has been supported with literature from various sources Generally non-traditional medicine practitioners believe that this approach of medicine is the best because it can cure all illnesses. Regular patients believe that it is effective and should be publicised as an effective way of treating illnesses. Medical doctors believe that the effectiveness of several non-traditional medicine procedures cannot be proven and is not guaranteed.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a form of non traditional medicine that involves inserting and manipulating needles into various parts of the human body to relieve pain (Larson, 2007). Acupuncture has its origin from traditional Chinese medicine. Although it is not evidence based, acupuncture continues to interest clinical practise by offering insights into human anatomy.  According to Chinese traditional medicine, the body has acupuncture points which are situated along the meridians along a life energy flow known as qi (Larson 2007). Manipulating these points can help relieve pain and discomfort. Acupuncture is used to promote health and well being. The practise has been dated back to 2000 years ago. In America acupuncture is conducted through the same basic method and involves the use of hair thin needles to pierce the skin. Research conducted by the national centre for reproductive medicine shows that occurrence of nausea and vomiting after chemotherapy and surgery can be reduced via acupuncture. Although scientist cannot directly prove how acupuncture works it is clear that the practise reduces pain.
