The use of complementary therapies is exploding, increasing the pressure to establish a rigorous science to support its practice. Clinical Research in Complementary Therapies: Principles, Problems and Solutions provides students with the tools they need to research complementary and integrative medicine (CIM) and so fill this gap. Essential for both undergraduate and postgraduate students, this second edition is significantly updated and enhanced. Part 1 deals with research strategies and methods, explaining the major types of clinical research in CIM and how these inter-relate. New chapters are included on whole systems research, qualitative research and questionnaire development. Not all therapies can be treated the same way nor channeled through the signal process of randomized controlled trials. Therefore, detailed description of mixed methods approaches including observational, qualitative, cost-benefit and comparative effectiveness research are described. Part 2 deals with specific complementary therapies and how they are invested by experts in each field. The book analyses the key questions asked and the controversies debated in complementary medicine research and offers clear and innovative guidance for answering these questions. FEATURES • Provides an overarching synthesis of methods in CIM and how they are to be used collectively including the role of comparative effectiveness research• Suggests both general and specific factors which need to be considered in assessing or planning complementary therapy research • Pinpoints aspects of research which are different in orthodox research and complementary therapy research • Reviews the types of research carried out in specific complementary therapies and analyses issues which arise • Includes information on measuring the economic cost and benefits of complementary medicine, clinical audit and the role of placebos use • Builds upon recent research results, looks at the lessons these provide for all complementary therapies and suggests key issues to address in future research. • Provides an overarching synthesis of methods in CIM and how they are to be used collectively including the role of comparative effectiveness research• Suggests both general and specific factors which need to be considered in assessing or planning complementary therapy research • Pinpoints aspects of research which are different in orthodox research and complementary therapy research • Reviews the types of research carried out in specific complementary therapies and analyses issues which arise • Includes information on measuring the economic cost and benefits of complementary medicine, clinical audit and the role of placebos use • Builds upon recent research results, looks at the lessons these provide for all complementary therapies and suggests key issues to address in future research.

La antigua tradición herborística, a pesar de los continuos éxitos que la hacen siempre viva y eficaz, no es suficiente. Hoy día hay una especialidad aún más efectiva: la gemoterapia, que no utiliza las partes de la planta adulta sino los tejidos frescos de la planta recién nacida: inflorescencias, gemas, capullos, bellotas, brotes jóvenes, raíces jóvenes, savia, corteza interna de las raíces, semillas, etc. Estas partes tienen una intensa actividad reproductiva y contienen el inicio de la futura planta: se trata, por lo tanto, de un concentrado de principios activos, energía y fuerza. Este libro enseña a recoger, macerar, filtrar y diluir los gemoderivados y a utilizarlos contra las más diferentes molestias y enfermedades. Se consideran individualmente las plantas útiles para la recogida y la utilización de los brotes, desde el abeto blanco hasta el castaño, desde el plátano hasta la zarza, desde el tilo hasta la vid. Se describen las propiedades terapéuticas de cada planta, las ventajas que ofrece, las molestias que puede curar, el uso y las dosis oportunas. Por ejemplo, el arándano rojo cura problemas de intestino y vías urinarias; el nogal es un remedio contra el acné, la micosis y la psoriasis; la encina se utiliza como reconstituyente general; el agavanzo refuerza las defensas inmunitarias y combate la cefalea, y así para todos los demás tipos de gemas. En la parte final del libro, una tabla ilustra de manera sintética los remedios gemoterápicos más eficaces para cada enfermedad y molestia.

El reiki es un antiquísimo método de autocuración mediante la imposición de las manos. Ayuda a reencontrar la salud física y el equilibrio interior porque nos conecta más profundamente con la energía vital universal. Es sencillo, seguro y natural, y además todos pueden recibirlo y donarlo. Este manual le explica de forma sencilla y clara qué es y cómo se practica el reiki, gracias también a la ayuda de las fichas técnicas para el diagnóstico y de más de cien ilustraciones en color con todas las fases de los tratamientos. Encontrará además la explicación detallada de las intervenciones telepáticas del segundo nivel y algunas técnicas avanzadas de preparación del tercero. Y todavía más: los tratamientos sobre animales, plantas, objetos y medicinas, las terapias naturales integrables y un cuadro resumen con las principales enfermedades que pueden curarse con el reiki. Un manual ágil y práctico, nacido de la experiencia directa, que responde a las mil preguntas que se plantea quien se aproxima al reiki; pero sobre todo una invitación a entender y entenderse mejor para ser finalmente el protagonista de la propia curación, de la propia salud y de la propia vida. Katia Losi es licenciada en lenguas extranjeras y en historia del arte y, desde hace veinte años, se dedica a la búsqueda espiritual y al estudio de las religiones y de la filosofía iniciática.
