[QUOTE="bikenut02, post: 3056254, member: 106046"] The thing about "pseudoscience" is that one needs to be cautious, particularly where money is involved. Kinda like the Reiki discussion in Traditional Healing. My experiences with reiki have been very positive - but note that they've also been FREE. I use herbs quite a bit. Or at least I did when I wasn't pregnant. The only thing I'm trying now (near term, not before) is raspberry leaf tea. That's also after doing research on it. But usually I stick with ones I know for little, simple things, in a form that I trust to at least not be too harmful. (Generally a commercially prepared tea, like Celestial Seasonings). I do think there may be something to ESP and psychics, but again I don't pay a lot of money for that sort of thing. I do (co-)pay for my chiropractor's services. But considering that I've had very little back pain throughout this pregnancy, it's been worth every penny. The bit of acupuncture that I've had has appeared beneficial as well. It's a buyer beware situation - make certain that you are the one who decides where your money goes, and how much of it. [/QUOTE]
