Michael, just in case you're not joking: it wasn't an accusation. It was a direct question. And btw, some of the items on the chart are time honored modalities, like homeopathy.

Sorry Share, "time honoured" means absolutely nothing at all. That people continue to believe things doesn't actually count as evidence for efficacy. They may have all sorts of reasons for supporting that which doesn't actually work because there are lots of much better explanations for the apparent occasional effectiveness, the placebo effect, reduction to the mean etc.

Homeopathy is 100% placebo and bedside manner, the concoctions do absolutely nothing because they are absolutely nothing - by design. Maybe that counts as a health "modality" in some circles but it isn't good enough for me.


Doesn't your Royal Family use homeopathy? Even Turq once disagreed with Curtis anti-homeopathic stance because he had actually found a homeopathic substance useful. There's something to the science even if it twiddles the mind of a high school trained scientist. :-D

The Reason Stick: A Handy Alternative Therapy Flowchart <http://crispian-jago.blogspot.com/2010/10/handy-alternative-therapy-flowchart.html> Believe it or not, I don't really have a particular interest in alternative therapies, I just can't help picking at the scabs of alt-med credulity.
