Healthcare proposals should include and enable traditional forms of medicine

Why would anyone limit the resources available to people in need, while at the same time refusing to recognize and compensate valid legitimate traditional forms of medicine and those who provide service?

Is an appointment the only way?

Martyn Hodgson · Sep 21, 2009 · 00:00

Instead of making the appointment the default option, why not make the "hands-off" service the default option?
It's high in my thoughts & here's a blog post I wrote a few weeks ago.

Save the next generation by copying what these two French towns did and implement it in every school and community. Education of children and their parents transformed the communities and reversed the childhood obesity trend. See:
