| " Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) practices may offer the potential for substantial public health gains and challenge the way that we view human beings, health and illness. It is important to keep an open mind about CAM and give proper scrutiny to new evidence as it emerges." |

| "Findings reveal that the health service managers in this study understand Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) to enhance the holistic capacity of their service by: filling therapeutic gaps in existing healthcare practices; by treating the whole person; and by increasing healthcare choices. The broader implications of this study can help assist in the development of health service policy on CAM integration in mainstream healthcare services." |
