Alternative Healing Methods?
I’ve been mulling over the idea for my future career.
I’m very interested in alternative healing methods, such as Acupuncture, Reiki, Massage Therapy-Shiatsu, Herbal Medicine, but my parents believe I should get a job that has benefits.
I’m thinking along the lines of Physical Therapy or an Osteopathic physician, thought I don’t know a whole lot about either.
If I do decide to going into Holistic Healing, would I be able to support myself or need a second job?
Any tips on just what Physical Therapy or Osteopathic Physician is about? I’ve only read little, but both seem interesting.
Are you located in the UK? Then Osteopaths are alternate therapists whereas in the US they are medical doctors.
Chiropractic is by far the most often used form of alternate healthcare in the US (and the third healthcare overall after medicine and dentistry).
There’s no reason you shouldn’t be able to find a job with health benefits after graduation – do a job search now, and find out what kind of benefits are being offered along with them.
I’ve had several Chiropractic staff-type jobs with health benefits. Now I have my own practice and make more than enough money to pay for it myself.
Good luck – I’m sure you’ll help a lot of people.
