You also must be careful when you come across a person with the Title "DOCTOR" before their name.

Anyone listing Themselves as a Doctor in the Fields of:

-  CHIROPRACTIC.

-  NATUROPATHY.

-  HOMEOPATHY.

Are not Legitimate Medical Professionals, in Terms of Proper Clinical and Training in Evidence Based Medicine.

Nothing that They may say about a Possible Diagnosis for any Symptoms that you have, can be Trusted, if it is done by Relying on the "TRAINING AND EDUCATION" RECEIVED IN THESE FIELDS.  Subject Matter that is part of a Legitimate Medical Degree is Based upon a Proper Understanding of the PHYSICAL SCIENCES, WHICH INCLUDE:

-  BIOLOGY.

-  CHEMISTRY.

-  ANATOMY.

-  PHYSIOLOGY.

These Disciplines, and Understanding Their Principles and Mechanisms on how They Affect the Human Body, are Based Upon Research Methodology that is Structured and Designed to Find Answers and Conclusions that can be Replicated in the Laboratory by anyone following Proper Procedures and Protocols.

IDENTICAL CONDITIONS AND FACTORS, SHOULD RESULT IN IDENTICAL CONCLUSIONS.  THAT IS WHAT PROPER SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH AND CLINICAL TRIALS ARE SET UP TO ACHIEVE.  THAT IS EVIDENCE BASED MEDICINE AT ITS CORE.

However, CHIROPRACTIC, NATUROPATHIC, AND HOMEOPATHIC  MEDICINE DO NOT FOLLOW THE REASON BASED STRUCTURES AND PROCEDURES THAT ARE PART OF LEGITIMATE SCIENCE BASED MEDICINE.  Any Substances that are Characterized as being part of any one of these Fields, as a Remedy or Preventive Medicine, has never been put through the Rigorous Conditions and Testing, WHERE THE RESULTS CAN BE CONSIDERED EMPIRICALLY VERIFIABLE.

INSTEAD, WHEN REFERRING TO THESE "ALTERNATIVE THERAPIES", YOU MAY HEAR SOME OF THE FOLLOWING:

-  INNATE INTELLIGENCE.

-  SPECIAL PLEADING.

-  FAITH HEALING.

-  WELLNESS.

... among others.
