    Hello all,

    basically I think boards could really do with a forum to discuss holistic health and alternative medicine.

    It could a huge range of topics such as herbalism, holistic nutrition (I know we already have a forum for that but it's largely dominated with dieting threads), yoga, tai chi, meditation, chinese medicine, aromatherapy, naturopathy, ayurveda, massage, kinesiology, colour therapy, sound therapy, natural beauty care anything not requiring a prescription for the chemist basically.

    I think it would be really great for people looking to study in the area to have other people to talk to about what options are out there and to gain insight into others peoples experiences.

    I think it's be great for practitioners to get to chat to each other about the challenges of working in this area and to help each other overcome any barriers they might be facing trying to get started.

    It would also a good spot to share natural remedy recipes like herbal tea blends, aromatherapy formulas etc. (ie the gentle harmless stuff that can't be construed as a replacement for medical treatment)

    And it would be a place where peoplle who are receiving these treatments can come and discuss how it has or has not helped them in different aspects of their lives.

    Concern has been expressed by an admin that people might end up swapping advice or discussing medical treatments but I think a good mod should be able to prevent that sort of thing from happening. I don't think theres anymore of a risk than there was when the nutrition forum started up, but it is something that would need to be thought out in order to prevent it.

    Anyone interested in helping me set this up PM me or add a link to your sig!
