Third Line Medicine: Modern Treatment for Persistent Symptoms

Current medical practice provides two lines of care: First Line Medicine, the basic care provided by primary physicians, and Second Line Medicine, for sophisticated, specialized treatment. When these fail, patients have been left with two options: living with their symptoms, or exploring alternative medicine. Now there is a third option. Third Line Medicine counters the compartmentalization of specialty care by providing an integrated approach which includes both orthodox and alternative treatments - thus offering new hope to the chronically ill and a new direction for modern medicine. --- from book's back cover
