Rent Balanced Healing: Combining Modern Medicine with Safe & Effective Alternative Therapies

Synopsis

Thanks to a new treatment approach… Millions of patients now enjoy the best of both worlds

Every year, Americans make 600 million visits to alternative health care practitioners, spending about $30 billion in the process (Newsweek). The same Americans also visit conventional doctors and see the value in modern medicine's high-tech advances.

Meantime, the two opposing camps—conventional vs. alternative medicine—keep slugging away at each other in an effort to prove who's right and who's wrong.

Enter Dr. Larry Altshuler, coming to the rescue of millions of Americans who wisely understand that both sides of the argument are right! 'You get the best possible medical care when you combine the best of both treatment disciplines,' says Dr. Altshuler. He calls this approach Balanced Healing.

Dr. Altshuler's healing approach is explained in detail in a first-of-its-kind book titled BALANCED HEALING: Combining Modern Medicine with Safe & Effective Alternative Therapies (February 2004, Harbor Press). Best-selling author and women's health guru Christiane Northrup, M.D. calls it 'groundbreaking,' and adds, 'This much-needed resource should be on the shelf of every concerned doctor and patient. I highly recommend it.'

Balanced Healing is an indispensable reference guide for every family that cares about health. Use its comprehensive A-to-Z listing to look up any common ailment. For each one, you'll find common symptoms, general recommendations, and a step-by-step treatment action plan with recommendations covering the full spectrum, from conventional medicine to alternative and research therapies.

Dr. Altshuler is board certified in Internal Medicine. He began introducing alternative treatments into his practice 26 years ago, long before the buzz words 'complementary' and 'integrative' medicine were even invented. Later, he went on to advanced training in Chinese herbal medicine, acupuncture, nutrition, Qigong, hypnosis, and mind-body medicine. Currently he runs the Balanced Healing Medical Center in Oklahoma City and hosts a weekly radio talk show.

'Today, lots of books talk about 'integrative' and 'complementary' medicine,' says Dr. Altshuler. 'But the truth is, all of them express a strong bias toward one discipline or the other—conventional or alternative medicine. I'm different, because I strive to be as neutral and bias-free as possible. My only yardstick for measuring is: what is safest and most effective. The truth is, the best treatment you can get comes from a balanced approach. In other words, the best of both worlds.
