Additionally, there are 31 other conditions that both sample adults and sample children could report treating with energy healing. For the full list of conditions, see EHTTREAT.
Energy healing is one of 16 modalities of alternative medicine that were included in the 2002 and 2007 Alternative Health Supplements. Persons could report treating heart attack by any of those methods, although 3 of the methods are not available as treatments for specific health problems in both years. Hypnosis and movement techniques were included as treatments for specific health problems in the 2007 survey only. See HYPYR and MOVALEXYR for more information. Conversely, prayer was included as a treatment for specific health problems in the 2002 survey only, when just sample adults were asked about their use of alternative and complementary medicine. See PRASELFEV for more information. Analysts interested in the treatment of heart attack by other alternative therapies should see EHTYR for the full list of alternative medicine treatments and a summary of other energy healing-related questions, including definitions.
