COURSE OVERVIEW
Welcome to Elements of Complementary Alternative Medicine, HE370, or Elements of CAM, an
introductory course designed to present the wide variety of non-allopathic, or non-traditional, medical
practices used for generations for disease management and prevention. This section, HE370 – 01,
Elements of CAM as De-Stressors, teaches the student how to integrate the elements of CAM into their
lives in order to deal with stress effectively. This goal is accomplished by going beyond the lecture and
hosting carefully chosen contemplative exercises to teach students how to perform on their own in order

relationships, money, health issues, people, deadlines, traffic, the news?
Please answer: What can you control? What can you not control?
There is normalcy to stress: survival; the “fight or flight” response is necessary to get us as far
away from danger as possible. Stress hormones deplete once all signs of danger are gone, as the

3. ELEMENTS OF CAM: SYLLABUS, LECTURE NOTES, STUDENT HANDOUTS 3
“body’s physiological response mechanisms are superbly adapted for dealing with such short-
term physical emergencies.” (Sapolsky, 1998, p. 6). However, when they remain, lingering
stress hormones exact physical damage, which is why perpetual stress, always being stressed,
takes a physical toll on the body; it is the continual presence of blood stress hormones . This
toll is articulated as “heart disease, anxiety disorders, high blood pressure, coronary artery
disease, cancer, respiratory disorders, accidental injuries, cirrhosis of the liver, and attempted
suicide, all of which are leading causes of death in the United States.” (Keegan, 2003).
You are not here, however, to learn how to counter the effects of stress on the body – and what
does CAM have to do with it? How can CAM de-stress?
CAM is effective as a de-stressor because, as a collection of therapies employed to serve the
person in all aspects of humanity: spirit, body, and mind, there exists the increased possibility of
being able to treat the individual holistically, many times with no side effects.
In the words of Elliott Dacher, medical doctor turned holistic healer and author of Integral
Healing: The Path to Human Flourishing,“The key to the next quantum leap in health and
healing will emerge from the development of our inner life and our consciousness… to integrate
the methods and practices…we must be willing to refocus our energy, attention, and efforts on
exploring the still uncharted frontier of the human mind and its healing capacities.” (Dacher,
2006, p. 15).
The mind-body connection is critical to healing and well-being: it is never enough to just treat
the body, the mind must also be treated, hence, the integration of CAM as lifestyle responses to
prevention and management of illness and disease.
- What is CAM?
Complementary medicine is used together with conventional medicine.
An example of a complementary therapy is using aromatherapy to help
lessen a patient's discomfort following surgery.
Alternative medicine is used in place of conventional medicine. An
example of an alternative therapy is using a special diet to treat cancer
instead of undergoing surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy that has been
recommended by a conventional doctor. (National Center for
Complementary and Alternative Medicine, 2007)
- The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine,
or NCCAM, a component of the National Institutes of Health, is the
Federal Government's lead agency for scientific research on CAM.
- NCCAM's mission is to explore complementary and alternative
healing practices in the context of rigorous science, train CAM
researchers, and disseminate authoritative information to the public
and professionals.

4. ELEMENTS OF CAM: SYLLABUS, LECTURE NOTES, STUDENT HANDOUTS 4
- NCCAM groups CAM practices into four domains, recognizing
there can be some overlap. In addition, NCCAM studies CAM whole
medical systems, which cut across all domains. (Ibid).
Whole Medical Systems
Whole medical systems are built upon complete systems of theory
and practice. Often, these systems have evolved apart from and
earlier than the conventional medical approach used in the United
States. Examples of whole medical systems that have developed in
Western cultures include homeopathic medicine and naturopathic
medicine. Examples of systems that have developed in non-
Western cultures include Traditional Chinese medicine and
Ayurveda.
Mind-Body Medicine
Mind-body medicine uses a variety of techniques designed to
enhance the mind's capacity to affect bodily function and symptoms.
Some techniques that were considered CAM in the past have become
mainstream (for example, patient support groups and cognitive-
behavioral therapy). Other mind-body techniques are still
considered CAM, including meditation, prayer, mental healing,
and therapies that use creative outlets such as art, music, or
dance.
Biologically Based Practices
Biologically based practices in CAM use substances found in nature,
such as herbs, foods, and vitamins. Some examples include dietary
supplements, herbal products, and the use of other so-called natural
but as yet scientifically unproven therapies (for example, using
shark cartilage to treat cancer).
Manipulative and Body-Based Practices
Manipulative and body-based practices in CAM are based on
manipulation and/or movement of one or more parts of the body.
Some examples include chiropractic or osteopathic
manipulation, and massage.
Energy Medicine
Energy therapies involve the use of energy fields. They are of two
types:

5. ELEMENTS OF CAM: SYLLABUS, LECTURE NOTES, STUDENT HANDOUTS 5
Biofield therapies are intended to affect energy fields that
purportedly surround and penetrate the human body. The
existence of such fields has not yet been scientifically proven.
Some forms of energy therapy manipulate biofields by applying
pressure and/or manipulating the body by placing the hands in, or
through, these fields. Examples include Qi gong, Reiki, and
Therapeutic Touch.
Bioelectromagnetic-based therapies involve the
unconventional use of electromagnetic fields, such as pulsed
fields, magnetic fields, or alternating-current or direct-current
fields.
- How Can You De-Stress with CAM?
- There are many CAM techniques that can be applied to lowering the
stress(es) in, or de-stressing, your life. Some are:
- Deep-Breathing (Mind-Body Medicine)
- Deep Tissue Massages (Manipulative & Body-Based)
- Meditation/Prayer (Mind-Body Medicine)
- Talking (Mind-Body Medicine)
- Listening to “White Noises,” e.g., the ocean, rain, wind (Mind-
Body Medicine)
- Painting/Sculpting/Quilting/Cooking (Mind-Body Medicine)
- Dancing (Mind-Body Medicine)
- Exercising
“Increasingly, CAM therapies are being integrated with conventional medicine. According to the
American Hospital Association's Annual Survey of Hospitals, the percentage of hospitals
offering CAM has increased from 7.9 percent in 1998 to 19.8 percent in 2006 (Ananth 2009;
Henkel 2010). The widespread and growing consumer demand for CAM in the U.S. led Wyatt
and Post-White (2005) to write that conventional “health care must now catch up with consumer
practices to provide guidance in the safe and effective use” of CAM.” (Pamela Jo Johnson,
2012).
“In recent years, integrative medical-research clinics have been springing up all around the
country, 42 of them at major academic medical institutions including Harvard, Yale, Duke, the
University of California at San Francisco, and the Mayo Clinic. Most appear to be backed
enthusiastically by administrators and many physicians.” (Freedman, The Triumph of New-Age
Medicine, 2011)
CAM is a reminder that we are more than health challenges, issues, medical or clinical
conditions, etc., but people experiencing them; CAM keeps us in touch with ourselves, which, I
believe, lends itself to arriving at healing more quickly than depending solely on
pharmaceuticals alone. Our minds MUSAT be involved in our healing

1. COURSE OUTLINE FOR ELEMENTS OF CAM AS DE-STRESSORS
Introduction: We cannot always control the situations and circumstances of life, but we can
control how we respond to them. The ambitious goal of this course is to empower to alleviate or
eradicate the stressors in your life through the application of CAM information to enable you to
make informed choices in dealing with the stressors in your daily life.
You are here because you are currently using and/or participating in some form of CAM, are
skeptical and willing to learn, or merely curious and looking for answers. This course is for all
of you!

A. Exercise – De-stress with Movement
B. Howley and Franks Quote
1. “High fitness in one area enhances the other areas, and conversely, lower fitness
in any area restricts the accomplishments possible in other areas…physical
activity plays a major role in the physical dimension, it also contributes to
learning, relationships, and a sense of our [humanity in the larger scheme of life.]
An optimal quality of life requires individuals to strive, grow, and develop, though
they may never achieve the highest level of fitness. The totally fit person
nevertheless continually strives for the highest quality of life possible. ” (Howley,
2007, p. 6).

2. CAM DEFINITIONS
Acupuncture ("AK-yoo-pungk-cher") is a method of healing developed in China at least 2,000
years ago. Today, acupuncture describes a family of procedures involving stimulation of
anatomical points on the body by a variety of techniques. American practices of acupuncture
incorporate medical traditions from China, Japan, Korea, and other countries. The acupuncture
technique that has been most studied scientifically involves penetrating the skin with thin, solid,
metallic needles that are manipulated by the hands or by electrical stimulation.
Aromatherapy ("ah-roam-uh-THER-ah-py") involves the use of essential oils (extracts or
essences) from flowers, herbs, and trees to promote health and well-being.

10. ELEMENTS OF CAM: SYLLABUS, LECTURE NOTES, STUDENT HANDOUTS 10
Ayurveda ("ah-yur-VAY-dah") is a CAM whole medical system that has been practiced
primarily in the Indian subcontinent for 5,000 years. Ayurveda includes diet and herbal remedies
and emphasizes the use of body, mind, and spirit in disease prevention and treatment.
Chiropractic ("kie-roh-PRAC-tic") is a CAM whole medical system. It focuses on the
relationship between bodily structure (primarily that of the spine) and function, and how that
relationship affects the preservation and restoration of health. Chiropractors use manipulative
therapy as an integral treatment tool.
Dietary supplements. Congress defined the term "dietary supplement" in the Dietary
Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) of 1994. A dietary supplement is a product
(other than tobacco) taken by mouth that contains a "dietary ingredient" intended to supplement
the diet. Dietary ingredients may include vitamins, minerals, herbs or other botanicals, amino
acids, and substances such as enzymes, organ tissues, and metabolites. Dietary supplements
come in many forms, including extracts, concentrates, tablets, capsules, gel caps, liquids, and
powders. They have special requirements for labeling. Under DSHEA, dietary supplements are
considered foods, not drugs.
Electromagnetic fields (EMFs, also called electric and magnetic fields) are invisible lines of
force that surround all electrical devices. The Earth also produces EMFs; electric fields are
produced when there is thunderstorm activity, and magnetic fields are believed to be produced
by electric currents flowing at the Earth's core.
Homeopathic ("home-ee-oh-PATH-ic") medicine is a CAM whole medical system. In
homeopathic medicine, there is a belief that "like cures like," meaning that small, highly diluted
quantities of medicinal substances are given to cure symptoms, when the same substances given
at higher or more concentrated doses would actually cause those symptoms.
Massage ("muh-SAHJ") therapists manipulate muscle and connective tissue to enhance function
of those tissues and promote relaxation and well-being.
Naturopathic ("nay-chur-o-PATH-ic") medicine, or naturopathy, is a CAM whole medical
system. Naturopathic medicine proposes that there is a healing power in the body that
establishes, maintains, and restores health. Practitioners work with the patient with a goal of
supporting this power, through treatments such as nutrition and lifestyle counseling, dietary
supplements, medicinal plants, exercise, homeopathy, and treatments from traditional Chinese
medicine.
Osteopathic ("ahs-tee-oh-PATH-ic") medicine is a form of conventional medicine that, in part,
emphasizes diseases arising in the musculoskeletal system. There is an underlying belief that all
of the body's systems work together, and disturbances in one system may affect function
elsewhere in the body. Some osteopathic physicians practice osteopathic manipulation, a full-
body system of hands-on techniques to alleviate pain, restore function, and promote health and
well-being.
Qi gong ("chee-GUNG") is a component of traditional Chinese medicine that combines
movement, meditation, and regulation of breathing to enhance the flow of qi (an ancient term

11. ELEMENTS OF CAM: SYLLABUS, LECTURE NOTES, STUDENT HANDOUTS 11
given to what is believed to be vital energy) in the body, improve blood circulation, and enhance
immune function.
Reiki ("RAY-kee") is a Japanese word representing Universal Life Energy. Reiki is based on the
belief that when spiritual energy is channeled through a Reiki practitioner, the patient's spirit is
healed, which in turn heals the physical body.
Therapeutic Touch is derived from an ancient technique called laying-on of hands. It is based
on the premise that it is the healing force of the therapist that affects the patient's recovery;
healing is promoted when the body's energies are in balance; and, by passing their hands over the
patient, healers can identify energy imbalances.
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is the current name for an ancient system of health care
from China. TCM is based on a concept of balanced qi (pronounced "chee"), or vital energy, that
is believed to flow throughout the body. Qi is proposed to regulate a person's spiritual,
emotional, mental, and physical balance and to be influenced by the opposing forces of yin
(negative energy) and yang (positive energy). Disease is proposed to result from the flow of qi
being disrupted and yin and yang becoming imbalanced. Among the components of TCM are
herbal and nutritional therapy, restorative physical exercises, meditation, acupuncture, and
remedial massage.
