Funded Activity Summary

Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) has emerged over recent years as a major public health and health services issue facing women’s health care. Yet, we still know very little about how, when and why women turn to CAM nor the experience and role of a range of practitioners with regard to such CAM use for women’s health problems. In response, the proposed research programme will examine these issues in relation to pregnancy, menopause and back pain.
