Complementary medicine and disability : Alternatives for people with disabling conditions

Complementary therapies can benefit many people with disabilities.

This text gives disabled people, and those who care for them, the information required to make informed decisions about their health and health care. "Disability" is defined broadly, to include conditions causing long-term physical disabilities and potentially disabling conditions such as multiple sclerosis, stroke or arthritis.

Designed to be of use to a wide range of people, this book: offers practical advice on finding qualified and competent practitioners in complementary medicine; describes and analyzes each major complementary therapy; and uses clear, non-technical language.
