    REVIEW ARTICLE NATUROPATHY SYSTEM – A COMPLIMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE AID IN DENTISTRY – A REVIEW Yatish Kumar Sanadhya1, Sanadhya Sudhanshu2, Sorabh R Jain3, Nidhi Sharma4 HOW TO CITE THIS ARTICLE: Yatish Kumar Sanadhya, Sanadhya Sudhanshu, Sorabh R Jain, Nidhi Sharma. “Naturopathy system – a complimentary and alternative aid in dentistry – a review”. Journal of Evolution of Medical and Dental Sciences 2013; Vol2, Issue 37, September 16; Page: 7077-7083. ABSTRACT: Coined by Dr. John Scheel, Henry Lindlahr crediting him as “father of Naturopathy”, Naturopathy system of Medicine is a system of healing science stimulating the body’s inherent power to regain health with the help of five great elements of nature. Naturopathy provides not only a simple practical approach to the management of disease, but a firm theoretical basic which is applicable to all holistic medical care and by giving attention to the foundations of health; also offers a more economical frame work for the medicine of future generation. Naturopathy is an approach to healing using “natural” means such as diet and lifestyle. For treatment, it primarily stresses on correcting all the factors involved and allowing the body to recover itself. In dentistry, various modalities are available therefore, supporting dental treatment. For the same purpose, this paper is intended to have an overview of other dental treatment modalities available via i.e. Naturotherapy. KEYWORDS: Nature therapy, hydrotherapy, therapeutics. INTRODUCTION: Naturopathy system of Medicine is a system of healing science stimulating the body’s inherent power to regain health with the help of five great elements of nature- Earth, Water, Air, Fire and Ether.

  • Geometry and Reporting Quality, NMA for CAM Interventions
    Geometry and Reporting Quality, NMA for CAM Interventions September 1, 2016 Assessing topics, geometry and reporting quality of network meta-analyses involving CAM interventions (study protocol) 1. Introduction While traditional pairwise meta-analysis has long been a vital component of evidence based medicine, it is increasingly common for clinicians and decision-makers to need answers to research questions which require the comparison of more than two interventions. Traditional meta-analytic methods are not able to answer such questions because the corresponding statistical framework is limited to comparison of two treatments at a time. Network meta-analysis (NMA) is a widely used approach to derive comparisons of treatment effects between interventions that may not have been compared directly in head-to-head clinical trials, or for which both direct and indirect evidence is available for synthesis.1-3 It can be described as a generalization of pairwise meta-analysis which enables the use of both direct and indirect evidence, and its framework enables the combination of this evidence to compare many treatments in a unified analysis, as long as there exists sufficient randomized trials to link all of the interventions together. The Knowledge Synthesis Group at the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute (OHRI KSG) is a CIHR-funded center for the performance of network meta-analysis. Amongst our current projects, we are currently performing two network meta-analyses which involve Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) interventions: one

  • Green Exercise and Mg-Ca-SO4 Thermal Balneotherapy for the Treatment of Non-Specific Chronic Low Back Pain
    Huber et al. BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders (2019)20:221 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12891-019-2582-4 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Green exercise and mg-ca-SO4 thermal balneotherapy for the treatment of non- specific chronic low back pain: a randomized controlled clinical trial Daniela Huber1,2†, Carina Grafetstätter1†, Johanna Proßegger1, Christina Pichler1, Ewald Wöll3, Martin Fischer3, Martin Dürl2, Karin Geiersperger2, Melanie Höcketstaller2, Stefan Frischhut4, Markus Ritter5,6 and Arnulf Hartl1* Abstract Background: Non-specific chronic low back pain (nscLBP) has a high socio-economic relevance due to its high incidence, prevalence and associated costs. Therefore, it is essential to evaluate effective therapeutic strategies. This study examines the effects of moderate mountain exercise and spa therapy on orthopedic and psychophysiological parameters. Based on a three-armed randomized controlled trial, guided mountain hiking tours and balneotherapy in thermal water were compared to a control group. Methods: Eighty patients with diagnosed nscLBP were separated into three groups: The two intervention groups GE (green exercise) and GEBT (green exercise and balneotherapy) undertook daily mountain hiking tours, whereas the GEBT group got an additional treatment with baths in Mg-Ca-SO4 thermal water. The third group (CO) received no intervention. GE and GEBT group were treated for 6 days; all groups were followed up for 120 days. Results: Compared to GE and CO group, the GEBT treatment showed significant improvements of pain, some orthopedic parameters, health-related quality of life and mental well-being in patients with nscLBP. Conclusions: The results of this study confirmed a benefit of mountain hiking combined with Mg-Ca-SO4 spa therapy as a multimodal treatment of patients with nscLBP.

  • Nature's Role in Outdoor Therapies: an Umbrella Review

Abstract: Objective: To report on the role of nature in outdoor therapies through review and summary of existing systematic and meta-analytic reviews in an effort to articulate a theoretical framework for practice. Materials and methods: An umbrella review was conducted following systematic protocols PRISMA guidelines. Results: Fourteen studies met the inclusion criteria and represented five self- identified approaches: nature-based therapies, forest therapy, horticultural therapy, wilderness therapy, and adventure therapy. Clear and comprehensive descriptions of theory, program structure, and activity details with causal links to outcomes were mostly absent. Conclusions: A rigorous and determined program of research is required in order to explicit in-depth theories of change in outdoor therapies. Conversely, or maybe concurrently, a holistic theory of integrated relatedness may be developed as a parallel expression of support for nature in therapy while the explanatory science catches up. Keywords: umbrella review; nature; therapy; outdoor therapies; health Citation: Harper, N.J.; Fernee, C.R.; Gabrielsen, L.E. Nature’s Role in 1.

  • Index of File Material on Unproven Methods of Cancer Management
    J A Index of American Cancer Society File Material on UNPROVEN METHODSofCANCER , MANAGEMENT ® AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY 1972 INTRODUCTION The American Cancer Society Committee on Unproven Methods of Cancer Management was established in 1955 for the purpose of reviewing the entire field of unproven cancer diagnostic or therapeutic methods. Since that time, the Committee has been instrumental in collecting, abstracting, and sunnnarizing a great deal of material dealing with new or unproven diagnostic or treatment methods, with a view to establishing and maintaining an information center which would be concerned with the collection and distribution of material in this field. As a first step in this direction, the attached Index of material in the American Cancer Society files has been prepared. The Committee has attempted to make the Index complete and compre­ hensive for the information and assistance it may render to the medical profession. Naturally, therefore, there is included in this Index the names of men and names of materials which have been recognized as proven or even outstanding in other fields, They are included in this Index because either the material has been suggested but not proven in the cancer field or the men whose work has been outstanding in other fields have made statements or written articles with reference to can­ cer which are in the unproven area. No conclusion should be drawn by •I the reader from the mere appearance of any name in this Index. Inquiry should be made of the American Cancer Society as to the material in its files before you reach any conclusions.
