Dr. Oz was on Oprah the other day espousing the values of alternative care. He mentioned that energy medicine would be the next big thing. I was reading some of the comments regarding a recent post on the nursing dx for energy field and I quote: "hard to believe", "hooey", "frivolity", "trivialize" "garbage" and "not worth the paper its printed on".
I was wondering if these comments were because you don't believe in energy fields affecting our health, or because you don't like the nursing diagnosis. If it is the latter, in what way would you change it? If Dr. Oz is right and energy medicine is "the next big thing", maybe we would do our field justice by being in on the ground floor? In the past, a lot of things that seemed to be "hooey" turned out to be right on. Does anyone have any experience with using energy medicine? If so, what was it like?
