Non-medical Treatment
By. Nahrul Said

Healthy is one of the most important basic needs for everyone. With a healthy body we can perform daily activities smoothly, and the otherways, we can not do anything if we are sick. However, many people who did not heed his health and keep doing work that could harm himself like smoking, drinking alcohol and unhealthy lifestyle others. And when they are sick, they just regret and immediately seek the best treatment. Although they have to spend a lot of money for the sake of his recovery either by using medical or nonmedical treatment. As we know that today many people prefer to use non-medical treatments rather than medical treatment. Therefore, this paper will discuss as to whether the non-medical treatment.
Nonmedical treatment is an alternative medicine that is often used to cure some illness that will not go away. Therefore, the usual treatment is often considered a last resort when medical treatment is not successfull. In addition, this treatment is preferred by most people because it has less side effects, made from natural ingredients, how to cure it easier, cheaper and affordable. An an example of chinese herbal medicine is currently being developed in our country, therefore it is now everywhere we often see herbal medicine clinics.
However, Nonmedical treatment is not always in line with what we expected. And also, people prefer medical treatment because treatment is more modern as it is supported by the advance of technology thus known to cause disease more rapidly than non-medical treatments are usually traditional and mystical. We have seen that our country there are many non-medical treatments such as shamans or psychis who can treat patients in the traditional way and usually at odds with medical treatment or can not be accepted by common sence. Remember us with little quack “ponari” who suddenly famous for his magic stone could cure various diseases that most patients are from the poor. In effect, the function of good medical health facility clinics, health centers and hospitals are not implemented.
As a health worker, I personally think that there is no harm in using a non-medical treatment as along as it is in accordance with the rules of the health sciences. But, people should first avail medical treatment in modern healthcare facilities in order to cause disease more easily with advance tools known and given appropriate therapy etiological.
Every person is entitled to and choose good health, it is already stated in the constitution of 1945, both medical and non-medical treatment. Nowdays, our goverment is trying hard to make the attainment of optimal health to the people. One of the steps the goverment is that everyone have health insurance and is very useful if a user is currently ill, he could use the health service in a hospital or other health care free of charge. Nevertheless, the most important thing is “prevention is better more than cure”, so keep your health with a good lifestyle.
