Naturopathy

As per available reports about 20 journals, 25 Conferences, 19 workshops are presently dedicated exclusively to Naturopathy and about 5880 articles are being published on the current trends in Naturopathy. As reported in Wikipedia Naturopathy is a form of alternative medicine based on a belief in vitalism, which posits that a special energy called "vital energy" or "vital force" guides bodily processes such as metabolism, reproduction, growth, and adaptation. Naturopathy favors a holistic approach with non-invasive treatment and generally avoids the use of surgery and drugs. Practitioners of naturopathy often prefer methods of treatment that are not compatible with evidence-based medicine, and in doing so, reject the tenets of biomedicine and modern science. Naturopathic medicine is considered replete with pseudoscientific, ineffective, unethical, and possibly dangerous practices.

 The Journal of Alternative & Integrative Medicine is an academic journal – hosted by OMICS International – a pioneer in open access publishing–and is listed among the top 10 journals in naturopathy. Journal of Alternative & Integrative Medicine focused on the areas such as Ayurvedic medicine, homeopathy, osteopathy, chiropractic, aromatherapy and anthroposophic medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, traditional-medicine, complementary-therapy & mind-body-link.
