medicine and traditional complementary forms of medicines’ are now widely known
and used. The effectiveness of these kinds of treatment is determined by the

I strongly agree that effectiveness of any treatment
depends upon the mental attitude of the patient. Where there is will there is
way. If the patient is willing to become alright, one would cooperate with the
doctors, follow the doctor’s orders and take medicines regularly. Hence
recovery will be fast and effective. In this essay I shall elaborate on my view
point and some forms of medical treatments.
The Homeopathic
deals with administration of small quantities of mild medicines in the form of
small white and sweet granules. This type of treatment cures the diseases
permanently; however treatment takes little longer while. The patient should
have patience to be OK. There are no side effects in this treatment.
Herbal (Ayurvedic): The treatment comprises of
powders, tablets, medicated oils etc. prepared from natural herbs, plants and
minerals. This is one of the oldest types of treatment and has no side effects.
This type of treatment is faster compared to Homeopathic.
In recent past, an Indian Yoga Guru, Baba Ramdeo
suggested a herb Giloy (Tinospora
cord folia). This prevents and cures more than 25 diseases. This herb gained
maximum popularity word over after it worked miracles on “Swine Flu”. Similarly Aloe-Vera is found to be most
useful for skin troubles and healthy skin keep-up and maintenance.
Finally Western Type, known as Allopathic type of
treatment is the most popular and widely accepted these days. The medicines are
made of different proportions of chemicals and drugs those can be administered
orally or injected directly into the muscles, veins and arteries with the help
of a suitable syringe. Surgery is also performed wherever needed. The treatment
is popular and fast
.
Summarizing, important for recovery is the positive
mental attitudes, regardless of the form of treatment.
