AB Complementary  and  alternative  therapies  have  been  defined  as  therapies  that  either  fall  outside  of  the  conventional  thought  and  approach  to  a  given  disease  or  that  are  not  taught  in  U.S.  medical  schools  or  widely  provided  by  U.S.  hospitals.  The  National  Center  for  Complementary  and  Alternative  Medicine  divides  these  therapies  into  5  major  domains  (Table  57–1).
