The terms alternative medicine, complementary medicine, integrative medicine, holistic medicine, natural medicine, unorthodox medicine, fringe medicine, unconventional medicine, and new age medicine are used interchangeably as having the same meaning and are almost synonymous in most contexts. Terminology has shifted over time, reflecting the preferred branding of practitioners.
For example, the United States National Institutes of Health department studying alternative medicine, currently named the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH), was established as the Office of Alternative Medicine (OAM) and was renamed the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) before obtaining its current name.
Therapies are often framed as “natural” or “holistic”, implicitly and intentionally suggesting that conventional medicine is “artificial” and “narrow in scope”

Such a retreat could provide an introduction to the world of Curanderismo and other indigenous healing modalities.
- Location: Lake Atitlan is known for its indigenous cultures and natural beauty, making it a popular destination for alternative medicine

- Personal Healing Sessions: Depending on the retreat, you might have the opportunity to receive individual healing sessions or consultations with curanderos or alternative medicine practitioners. These sessions could be tailored to address specific health concerns or provide general well-being support.
- Cultural Immersion: In addition to the healing practices, a retreat in Guatemala might provide opportunities to learn about the local culture, traditions, and indigenous beliefs. This could involve engaging in cultural activities, participating in community events, or exploring nearby archaeological sites or natural landmarks.
