Alternative medicine (Hebrew: רפואה אלטרנטיבית, R'fuah Alternativit; German: Alternative Medizin; French: Médecine alternative) refers to any practice that aims to achieve the healing effects of medicine but is not based on evidence gathered using the scientific method. It consists of a wide range of health care practices, products, and therapies that are not considered part of conventional medicine. These practices may include herbal medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, homeopathy, chiropractic, and many others. While some alternative therapies have been integrated into conventional medical practice, many lack sufficient scientific evidence to support their effectiveness and safety. Critics argue that the term "alternative medicine" is misleading, as it implies that these practices are viable alternatives to conventional medicine, which is not always the case. Proponents, however, contend that alternative medicine offers holistic and patient-centered approaches that address the root causes of illness rather than just the symptoms.
This site lets you convert words, names, and phrases into numerical values using different gematria systems. You can use the main calculator gematria tool at the top of the page: type your text, choose a method, and press Convert.
The calculator gematria tool supports multiple alphabets and standard letter–number mappings. More systems will be added in the future.
The reverse gematria calculator uses the same alphabet as the standard system but assigns values in reverse order (for example, A = 26, B = 25, …, Z = 1 in a basic English reverse setup). This lets you compare standard and reverse values for the same text.
Enter the word Alternative medicine and press enter or button Convert. This will provide all selected gematria values for Alternative medicine.
