Behavioral and Alternative Medicine practices, including those which form the core of behavioral medicine are rapidly finding acceptance within the clinical community. Patients now visit as many or more alternative providers as traditional providers and are spending billions of dollars on attempts to get care not available from the traditional medical community.
