Complementary and Alternative Medicine in the Military Health System: Appendixes

Abstract

These appendixes are part of a larger document on the use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) in the military health system. Because appendixes A through E contain mostly text and summarize the key results and characteristics for five CAM services commonly offered and used at military treatment facilities (MTFs) (acupuncture, chiropractic, diet therapy, mindfulness meditation, and stress management/relaxation therapy), they are included with the main body of the report. Appendixes F through H supply other supplementary material. Appendixes F and G contain the CAM survey instrument and a glossary of CAM services, respectively. Appendix H contains tables of detailed results from the CAM survey and the MHS administrative data analyses. Individual tables in this appendix are referenced in Chapters Three through Seven of the main report.
