Balanced Healing: Combining Modern Medicine with Safe & Effective Alternative
Larry Altshuler
Dr. Altshuler’s healing approach is explained in detail in a
first-of-its-kind book titled BALANCED HEALING: Combining Modern
Medicine with Safe & Effective Alternative Therapies (February
2004, Harbor Press). Best-selling author and women’s health guru
Christiane Northrup, M.D. calls it "groundbreaking," and adds, "This
much-needed resource should be on the shelf of every concerned doctor
and patient. I highly recommend it." Balanced Healing is an
indispensable reference guide for every family that cares about health.
Use its comprehensive A-to-Z listing to look up any common ailment. For
each one, you’ll find common symptoms, general recommendations, and a
step-by-step treatment action plan with recommendations covering the
full spectrum, from conventional medicine to alternative and research
therapies. Dr. Altshuler is board certified in Internal
Medicine. He began introducing alternative treatments into his practice
26 years ago, long before the buzz words "complementary" and
"integrative" medicine were even invented. Later, he went on to
advanced training in Chinese herbal medicine, acupuncture, nutrition,
Qigong, hypnosis, and mind-body medicine. Currently he runs the
Balanced Healing Medical Center in Oklahoma City and hosts a weekly
radio talk show. "Today, lots of books talk about ‘integrative’
and ‘complementary’ medicine," says Dr. Altshuler. "But the truth is,
all of them express a strong bias toward one discipline or the
other—conventional or alternative medicine. I’m different, because I
strive to be as neutral and bias-free as possible. My only yardstick
for measuring is: what is safest and most effective. The truth is, the
best treatment you can get comes from a balanced approach. In other
words, the best of both worlds."
