The increasing drive to adopt evidence-based practice within the mainstream health service creates a sense of urgency for high quality, rigorous research to support CAM. The RCT is seen as the gold standard for allopathic research. However, the tenets of the RCT cannot simply be just picked up and applied to CAM research. Critics of the RCT propose that it fractures and fragments the essence of many complementary therapies. Challenges including standardisation, blinding, randomisation, practitioner influence, placebos, and controls are explored and some possible solutions are presented. CAM researchers need to be creative so that they capture some of the intangibles that currently slip through the reductionist net of the RCT.

The first trial of two essential oils (derived separately from leaf and fruit) of Vitex agnus castus for menopausal balance was conducted in the summer of 2000 by the author. Surveys completed by the 23 participants in that trial indicated strong symptomatic relief of common menopausal symptoms.2 This research update details the result of the second round of trials, which were conducted in the summer of 2002 with 52 additional subjects under the supervision of 12 diverse health practitioners. The second trial appears to support the finding of the first trial, as well as identifying some important contraindications to use of the essential oil.

Peter A Mackereth, With a contribution from Liz Tipping, Sister Neonatal Intensive Care, St. Mary's Hospital, Manchester
Infant or baby massage has emerged in the recent decade as an activity promoted by health care professionals, popular with parents and the subject of a growing body of research evidence (Complement. Ther. Nurs. Midwifery 2 (1996) 151; 3 & 8 Tough Ther. 2000). This paper reports on the experience of establishing and facilitating baby massage training. There is a focus in the discussion on teaching fathers, as only one male parent attended the classes over a 6-month period. Recommendations are made in the conclusion, identifying possible ways of promoting fathers involvement in babies massage. The paper, with its images of a father engaged in baby massage, is intended to add to the current limited amount of literature available on this subject.

This article explores the place that imagework, an interactive imagery process, has in enabling patients to make sense of physical and emotional illness and how it can be the means for healing and profound life change. It discusses how, through expanding patients’ awareness of the interconnection between body, mind and soul, the outcome of the disease process can be affected. The differences between imagework and visualisation; healing and cure are highlighted, and case notes, with examples of how imagework can help to gain a larger perspective on illness, are used.

In September 2001, the author was invited by Dr. Wendy Makin (Macmillan Consultant in Palliative Care) and Andrea Sarginson (Volunteer Arts Worker) to introduce art therapy to the Christie Hospital as part of a postgraduate training course at the University of Sheffield. The aim of this paper is to explore how the project could help inpatients and outpatients to address their psychological needs and come to some understanding of their situation, following their diagnosis of cancer.
