Abstract
This paper investigates the phenomenon of complementary and
alternative medicine (CAM) and how various practices within it
have continued to flourish despite the preeminence of the
Western biomedical tradition. Through a critical analysis of three
intentionally chosen CAM systems (ayurveda, acupuncture, and
chiropractic) an improved understanding of how they can
function as supplemental treatments that encourage a
biopsychosocial orientation toward healthcare can be gained.
