this isn't the alternative medicine thread but I want to ask if anyone else has seen that wild "Somatic Breathwork" poo poo that claims to be able to reset your nervous system and release trapped emotions (whatever that means) through breathing exercises. if you see the short clips of the breathing exercises they do, it 100% looks like that passout game I saw friends do as a teenager where you exhale all the air in your lungs and have someone press on your chest until you black out

The Oldest Man posted:You know what's real loving confusing is osteopathy is quackery, but doctors of osteopathic medicine (DOs) in the united states have mutated over time until they're not quacks anymore but everywhere else it's still chiropractoring-grade garbage and non-DO osteopaths in the US are still quacks yeah it's very weird and funny that DOs in the US are just "regular doctors (maybe lower admission criteria) but they also learn some weird massage bullshit" and I wonder if it is like, by osmosis, lending credibility to the other actually-just-quack fields, or if it's just that the US healthcare system is so broken and stupid and people don't ever even notice or know the difference between their doc being an MD or a DO text editor posted:this isn't the alternative medicine thread but I want to ask if anyone else has seen that wild "Somatic Breathwork" poo poo that claims to be able to reset your nervous system and release trapped emotions (whatever that means) through breathing exercises. passing out and cracking your head open is a doctor-approved treatment for a variety of conditions, apparently!

Jort Fortress posted:Summer Flu really tearing through my coworkers now that school is back. I’ve casually suggested Paxlovid to a few of them that mentioned being sick and either get “oh, it’s not COVID” or total confusion because they’ve never heard of the medication and probably think I’m insane. Mind you, they all acknowledge COVID’s continued existence, so I’m not sure why the refusal to mitigate its long term risks. Well, you see, only weak or vulnerable people need to worry about COVID, so the tools are there for the weak and the vulnerable. Being weak or vulnerable in the United States is a moral failing, almost as bad as being poor, since we all know the universe rewards the good and punishes the bad. As a result, your coworkers aren't willing to admit or even explore the possibility that they are sick enough to need the tools. Put more succinctly: propaganda works.

Poppers posted:DOs are fine lol Yeah there's nothing specifically wrong with a DO they just spend a year learning to lay on hands. They technically have the same training as an MD and have most of the same educational requirements The main reason to sneer at American DOs is that their programs tend to lurk in religious and private universities where the standards may be significantly lower and where students unsuited to medicine may have an easier time getting through the program I can't really avoid them in the part of the country I live in, but my experience with MDs is that they tend to come across as more professional and skilled than DOs do and I prefer an MD when I can get one

empireofcrime posted:demon country lmao quote:The CDC responded to Seminario and the experts’ letter only now, a month later, and just before the scheduled Aug 22 meeting. The agency offered no substantive or specific rebuttal, but spoke of its dedication to “improving healthcare quality” and commitment to “to transparency, communication, and stakeholder engagement.”

we used to take our kids to a pediatric clinic attached to a private university where everyone was a DO and from BYU yes, we did vaccinate our kids on the standard schedule. why are you looking at me like that?

bobtheconqueror posted:Well, you see, only weak or vulnerable people need to worry about COVID... Agreed, it seems like the thought of it hurting them (a very strong person) is unfathomable. In those conversations, I share the anecdote of my healthy, vaxxed 18yo nephew who's dealt with dysautonomia (POTS, out of control heart rate, fatigue) since his "mild" infection in Dec. 2021. He had an engineering scholarship out of state but just opted to attend a smaller college near home because his health issues have scared the poo poo out of him and he wants to be near where his parents live. Libs think the vaccine is a coat of amor and can't fathom that the govt would mislead them.

just wanted to toss out a  to big V for finally banning ibid, a genuine problem poster and one of the absolute worst posters in the thread (the forum too but he only ever posted here). wish it happened months and months ago but it is what it is. gives me hope that this iteration of the thread might not be as miserable a cesspool as the last. patriots are in control etc
