Interesting, we have many Heilpraktiker (I don't know what translate into English but I would like to call them as "herbal doctor" or "natural doctor") - I found translation between German and English dictonary but I am not sure either it's correct translation.
dict.cc Wörterbuch :: heilpraktiker :: Englisch-Deutsch-Übersetzung
They made homeopathy, herbs and acupuncture treatments etc. like what I told you about in my previous post that public health insurance don't alway cover the cost but I am lucky is my family doctor know a lot about herbs/natural medicines etc.
My family doctor is not an official Heilpraktiker (herbal or natural doctor) but she can advise us to use herbs or whatever... It's up to us as patient either we trust her or not. The doctors would be glad to advise you something if you let them know that you beleive in herbs... She pick kind of herbs medicines where health insurance can cover the cost. I know many doctors advised their patients to drink herbs, milk with honey, hot lemon, etc... They only lost their liescne if any happened to patients thru wrong surgery, wrong advice, etc.
