uses
Used for: Alternative to pharmaceutical drugs for various health concerns
Praised: Works for Annie Jacobsen; has a long history; avoids pharmaceutical drug side...
vs: Used instead of drugs prescribed by doctors as standard of care
"I have acupuncture and it just seems like anytime I go for anything, someone wants to give me drugs, which I'm not a fan of, I go to the acupuncturist. Call it the placebo effect or call it whatever you want, but it certainly works for me."

vs: Presented alongside Reiki as an alternative to data-driven health optimization
"I'm seeing a lot of growth in holistic practices from Reiki or acupuncture or other forms of healing, in the same group of people who previously were doing a lot of quantification."
