Energy medicine modalities, also known as biofield therapies, are perhaps the most mysterious and controversial complementary alternative medicine therapies. Although many of these approaches have existed for millennia, scientific investigation of these techniques is in its early stages; much remains to be learned about mechanisms of action and efficacy. These techniques are increasingly used in clinical and hospital settings and can be incorporated into an integrative primary care practice. This article describes several energy medicine and biofield therapies and outlines key elements they hold in common. Several specific approaches are described. Research findings related to the efficacy of energy medicine are summarized, and proposed mechanisms of action and safety issues are discussed. Guidelines are offered for primary care providers wishing to advise patients about energy medicine or to integrate it into their practices, and Internet and other resources for obtaining additional information are provided.
能量医学疗法，也被称为生物场疗法，或许是最神秘且具争议性的补充替代医学疗法。尽管其中许多方法已存在数千年，但对这些技术的科学研究仍处于早期阶段；关于其作用机制和功效仍有许多有待了解。这些技术在临床和医院环境中使用得越来越多，并且可以纳入综合初级保健实践中。本文描述了几种能量医学和生物场疗法，并概述了它们共有的关键要素。还描述了几种具体方法。总结了与能量医学功效相关的研究结果，并讨论了其作用机制和安全问题。为希望就能量医学向患者提供建议或将其纳入实践的初级保健提供者提供了指导方针，并提供了获取更多信息的互联网及其他资源。
