NURS 4615 - Complementary Healing Modalities



This course enables the student to explore a wide variety of complementary healthcare measures such as herbal/therapy, acupressure and reflexology available to, and utilized by people. Students study ways to understand and work with complementary healers and practitioners. The legal and ethical problems are also investigated. Complementary modalities including home remedies are analyzed to determine their efficacy. The primary purpose of this course is to familiarize the student with complementary healthcare modalities and the providers that practice various modes of therapy. Note: A classroom appearance of a healthcare provider does not constitute endorsement of the modality or sincerity of the practitioner. It is simply an attempt to explore the modality and provide the student with an opportunity for scholarly investigation.
