Affordable Holistic Care Directory
Whether it calls itself conventional
or holistic, healthcare must be accessible for all. Unfortunately,
most Americans cannot afford to regularly receive fee-for-service
holistic healthcare as it is typically practiced today, particularly in
this difficult economic climate.
Published in 2009-2010 in collaboration with the non-profit Integrative
Medicine Alliance, the Affordable Holistic Care Directory
seeks to make complementary/alternative medical care accessible to all
by publicizing innovative cost-cutting practices, volunteerism, and
compassionate pricing in holistic care throughout New England. The
directory features acupuncturists,
bodyworkers, energy healers and other holistic caregivers who are
providing free care or who are accepting $35 or less for their services,
as well as classes (e.g. yoga, t'ai chi) that cost less than $10 per session.

We are grateful to the assistance of three Brown University
undergraduate interns, Kevin Liou, Richard Stein, and Angela Wong, in
developing this project.
