the RCCM - developing the evidence base for complementary medicine

The RCCM
The RCCM was founded in 1983 by a group of enthusiatic practitioners and researchers from both orthodox and complementary medicine. Today, our aim is to develop and extend the evidence base for complementary medicine in order to provide practitioners and their patients with information about the effectiveness of individual therapies and the treatment of specific conditions. The recently launched CAMEOL database that has been developed in conjunction with the School of Integrated Health at the University of Westminster is one such example of the work that has been undertaken by the RCCM to make this information more widely available. We are grateful to the University of Westminster for hosting this web-site.
