Alternative medicine uses techniques different from traditional medicine to treat illnesses. The benefit of complementary medicine is that they do not include drugs or surgery and thus have extremely less side effects. It is for this reason that complementary medicine has become so popular and is many people’s first choice when dealing with chronic illnesses, such as fibromyalgia. Several complementary medicine techniques do appear to safely relieve stress and reduce pain, and some are gaining acceptance in mainstream medicine. Some may have controversial evidence of effectiveness, but many patients feel that they do make a difference.
