The particular schools of therapy never have been exactly defined--neither by law nor by judicature. Despite being in contrast to the scientifically based classical medicine, its application is basically accepted by the judicature within the general scope of the therapeutic autonomy of the physician. There are however, special limitations to be observed by the naturopath in order to protect the patient. Thus, disciples of alternative schools of therapy must always consider carefully whether or not methods of the classical medicine should be preferred for the sake of the patient's health. In addition, they must inform the patient about all therapeutic alternatives. Special problems may arise if parents reject proven measures of the classical medicine to be applied to their minor children. In such a case the child's benefit has priority to the parent's rights.
治疗的特定流派从未被精确定义——无论是法律还是司法机构都没有做到这一点。尽管与基于科学的传统医学形成对比，但其应用在医生治疗自主权的总体范围内基本被司法机构所接受。然而，自然疗法从业者为了保护患者必须遵守一些特殊限制。因此，替代治疗流派的从业者必须始终仔细考虑，为了患者的健康，是否应该优先选择传统医学的方法。此外，他们必须告知患者所有的治疗选择。如果父母拒绝将传统医学中已被证实的措施应用于他们的未成年子女，可能会出现特殊问题。在这种情况下，儿童的利益优先于父母的权利。
