Green Movement in Medicine
In the green movement now popularized in all forms of industry, from cars to windmills to home cleaners, there is a trend to" more natural" That to be seen as green means more in keeping with Nature That our mindbodies would be in concert with Her
This has been happening in the medical industry as well although we haven't really tagged it as a "green movement" But there is a trend to reserve technology for more serious disease
But when we think about it, this movement toward more natuaral forms of healing is completely behind the desire for supplements and finding health in a pill, looking for ways to be healthy without having to have invasive procedures, leading to a better and more expanded group of services
For example, in prostate cancer there are lesions that can be managed in more conservative ways(watchful waiting) than more aggressive lesions
So when does the medical consumer choose the "greener" alternatives for medical care
Prevention themes are a perfect place for green alternatives
Selecting foods appropriate for one's mindbody makeup is a good place to start
Confronted with a serious medical problem is NOT a place to use green alternatives
Green alternatives can be used in support for technological medical care
