Guest guest Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Actually they do sometimes treat the cause but more often in these particular cases they try to take the patient away from the cause like in allergies and stuff. Surely they do not have the tools to treat causes most of the times. But would like to note that this thinking that many holistic people tend to acquire does not do any good on a long run. You have to understand that they do wonders everyday saving people from dying with those limited tools they've got. Our goal should be working together to benefit the patient rather then pumping up the ego. As for this doctor Yeah I'd say its " BULL " . But I wouldn't act on it this way. I'd ask him for some examples for what he meant and then see.
