About CAM/Integrative Medicine

Use of complementary and alternative medicines (CAM) is on the increase in the United States. A recent survey indicates that

40% of Americans use CAM for chronic conditions;
CAM was most frequently used for pain control, and nearly 50% reported using CAM because their prescribed medications were ineffective;
