This article describes the origin and workings of Spiritist Healing Centers in Brazil. Given the reported success in healing mental, emotional, and physical disease, the author suggests further research into the healing practices, philosophy, and education offered at these centers. The general dynamics of Spiritist healing is described. Issues that have limited research in the past are put forth along with a historical perspective on spiritual healing, evidencing that strides are currently being made by researchers validating the effectiveness of specific spiritual approaches to complement conventional medical procedures.

Herbal remedies (phytomedicines) possess significant pharmacological activity and consequently potential adverse effects and drug interactions. The explosion in sales of herbal therapies has brought products to the marketplace that do not conform to the standards of safety and efficacy that physicians and patients expect. Relatively few physicians inquire about herbal medicine use, and up to 70% of patients do not reveal their use of herbal medicines to their physicians and pharmacists. All physicians should question patients regarding the use of herbal remedies and document their responses in the medical record. They should caution patients that lack of standardization, quality control, and regulation may result in variability in herbal content, efficacy, and potential contamination. Physicians should be aware of potential adverse reactions stemming from herbal medicine use, especially with regard to perioperative bleeding, cardiovascular instability, and interactions with commonly prescribed sedative-hypnotic agents.

Increasing consumer demand for complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) has led many health care organizations to create “integrative medicine centers” (IMCs) that combine the use of biomedical and CAM therapies. This article explores institutional issues in the emergence of IMCs affiliated with hospitals in academic medical centers. We assess efforts at integration, analyze the challenges, and comment on the balance between factors that support and hinder the continued expansion of IMCs. Our conclusion is that, although obstacles remain, they are not insurmountable. One former concern, physician skepticism, is now much less intense. However, achieving financial viability continues to be a major hurdle for IMCs. We offer some policy considerations for those establishing IMCs in order to broaden the options available to consumers of health care.
