First sentence: Various unrelated and diverse therapies are euphemistically described as "holistic," "alternative," "complementary," or "integrative"; in veterinary medicine, the popular acronym is CAVM, for complementary and alternative veterinary medicine (with so many names, some, as per the suggestion of medical historian James Whorton, might even call it vernacular medicine).
