Nearly 100 million Boomers desire wellness, aggressively disregarding authority and conformity.
Boomers do not wish to “grow old gracefully” rather they are seeking ways to hold on to their youth through Reflexology and other forms of complementary medicine.
A new study shows that Baby Boomers Look To Alternative Medicine In Record Numbers. Journal of Health and Social Behavior.
Many boomers demand Reflexology and alternative medicine options because of their frustration with the limitations of mainstream medicine. The most telling evidence of Americans’ dissatisfaction with traditional health care is the more than $27 billion they spend annually on alternative and complementary medicine, according to government estimates.
Boomers realize that a lot of prescription medications cause low libido, depression, skin disorders and a host of other unpleasant side effects including major health risks or even death.
Consider the July 26, 2000, issue of JAMA reported that medical and pharmaceutical errors had become the third leading cause of death in America!
Yet another positive sign that change is on the horizon. Seventy-one percent of people over the age of 50 are opting for alternative and complementary medicine. The U.S. population is finally starting to realize that the conventional medical system is a sinking ship.
