RESUMEN
O surgimento e desenvolvimento das terapias alternativas integraram o movimento contracultural iniciado na década de 1960. As transformações sociais da época inauguraram, no campo da saúde do mundo ocidental, um período de convivência de diversas culturas de saúde. No presente trabalho elaboramos interpretações socioantropológicas de fatores culturais, políticos e socioeconômicos que influenciaram essas transformações. Primeiro, identificamos fatores macroculturais que influíram nas transformações no campo da saúde. Em seguida, os conflitos e rupturas nesse campo que contribuíram para a busca de novas práticas terapêuticas. Utilizamos a análise de textos como metodologia principal, partindo do pressuposto de que a abordagem integrativa das terapias alternativas exprime um aspecto da transformação dos valores culturais nas sociedades contemporâneas.
The emergence and development of alternative therapies comprised part of the counter-cultural movement initiated in the 1960s. In the health field of the western world, the social transformations that occurred at that time inaugurated a period in which diverse health cultures coexisted. In this work we elaborate the socio-anthropological interpretations of cultural, political and socio-economic factors that influenced these transformations. First, we identify the macrocultural factors that would influence the transformations in the health field. Next, within this field we analyze the conflicts and disruptions that contributed to the search for new therapeutic practices. We use text analysis as the principal methodology, starting from the presupposition that the integrative approach of alternative therapies expresses an aspect of the transformation in the cultural values of contemporaneous societies.

Some observers have insisted that modern medicine should be restored to the holistic nature in the face of the limitations of the current mechanistic modern medicine. Four medical doctors trained in modern medicine, Simonton, Chopra, Kohda and Takeguma are showing the creative models of medicine based on the holistic philosophies and methodologies. It will be meaningful to investigate what the sociocultural backgrounds of their thinkings and practice are, and how much these are socially acceptable and useful.
