Patient discussion about ethical.

Q. The cobbler's shoes are never fixed A bit philosophical/ethical question: do you think it’s a appropriate to an alternative therapist to treat people with disease he or she has and can’t cure himself?

A. In my opinion – yes. First of all, many treatments are technically impossible to be performed by the therapist on his or her own body. Moreover, it’s a common notion in many alternative medicine disciplines that different people respond differently to the same treatments, so it’s not unacceptable that the healer would suffer from a disease he or she claims to cure in others.
