Is the ‘natural way’ better than the modern medicine way?

My question is simple::

Is the ‘natural way’ better than the modern medicine way?

Recently I have had an abundance of medical issues – now in part I actually think it is my mental illness effecting my body – but that is another post entirely!

Anywho, I love my doctor but it has come to the point where she has been scratching her head and coming back to me with little to no answers on how to fix my issues… So on a discount voucher I went to see a natropath.

Now I am still at this point not too sure if I am so desperate that I am willing to do anything, and that fact that I spent my life’s savings on green goop and tablets doesn’t help with me wondering if this is going to help, but…

If I think about it logically one side of me thinks that had I seen a specialist I would have had no qualms about spending the appointment fee nor paying for any medicine that he may have prescribed to me… However a tinnie winny little part of me is still skeptical about weather or not alternative medicine is a sham.

I have only been going down the ‘alternative route’ for 4 days now, so I know there is still a long way to go before I know if I am healing… And yes becuase I have no other choices I am heading down this path to wellness – but I still cannot help but to wonder if it is going to be worth it or an experience I will put down as a learning tool….
