Natural therapeutic methods are increasingly gaining ground world-wide. Modern medicaments, applied in everyday use, are efficient but with more and more side-effects. Aside from potential health risks, patients must cope with a further difficulty; the rise in pharmaceutical costs. We certainly do need medicine, however, for certain diagnosis, natural therapies can be excellent supplements to drugs, in many cases even replacements.
