Despite a relatively positive attitude toward some CAM therapies, patients continue to use alternative medicine without notifying their primary care physicians. Unsupervised use of these therapies is potentially harmful and reflects a deficiency in the doctor–patient relationship. Open communication between physicians and their patients will continue to be hindered until physicians become knowledgeable in this area.</div>","PeriodicalId":80285,"journal":{"name":"Integrative medicine : integrating conventional and alternative medicine","volume":"1 4","pages":"Pages 149-153"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S1096-2190(98)00038-9","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88436644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Anxiety is frequently associated with pain. This study investigated the efficacy of therapeutic touch (TT) in reducing chronic musculoskeletal pain and anxiety in an elderly population. Effects of TT were tested on three outcome variables: pain, anxiety, salivary cortisol. Methods: A pre–posttest, single-blind, randomized three-group design was used to compare effectiveness of TT to mimic touch (MT, a placebo), and standard care (SC). Ninety-five participants were recruited from seven facilities (retirement communities, nursing homes, adult day care and community senior centers), stratified by facility and randomized into one of three groups. Participants in TT group received a 20-min TT intervention; MT group participants received 20 min of mimic touch. Interventions were administered at the same time on 3 consecutive days at the participant’s facility. SC participants received only standard care. Pain was measured by an 11-point numeric rating scale. State anxiety was measured with Form Y-1 of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. Salivary cortisol was analyzed using radioimmunoassay. Analysis of variance and Kruskal–Wallis Test were used for data analysis. Results: Ninety subjects completed the protocol. Pain reduction in TT group was significantly reduced (p < .001) when compared with control groups, effect size of 0.92. Anxiety in TT group was also significantly reduced (p < .01), effect size of 0.35. Salivary cortisol levels showed little change.Conclusions: This study demonstrated that TT is effective in reducing self-reported pain and anxiety in an elderly population. Physiological responses to TT need further study.</div>","PeriodicalId":80285,"journal":{"name":"Integrative medicine : integrating conventional and alternative medicine","volume":"1 4","pages":"Pages 155-162"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S1096-2190(98)00036-5","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75223030","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article outlines how modern systems science reenvisions memory in water and dynamic systems in general. We present the logic that inexorably leads to the prediction that recurrent feedback interactions result in the storage of information and the creation of systemic memories in dynamic systems at all levels in nature. The complex nonlinear interactions that naturally accumulate through the circulation of information and energy in systems are shown to be dynamic memories that reflect the evolving identity of systems as emerging wholes. The theory provides a highly plausible mechanism for understanding numerous seemingly implausible and controversial observations in contemporary science and medicine, including memory in water and homeopathy.</div>","PeriodicalId":80285,"journal":{"name":"Integrative medicine : integrating conventional and alternative medicine","volume":"1 2","pages":"Pages 53-59"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S1096-2190(98)00009-2","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82957962","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
