There are 31 other conditions that both sample children and sample adults could report treating with energy healing. For the full list of conditions, see EHTTREAT.

Energy healing is one of 16 modalities of alternative medicine that were included in the 2002 and 2007 Alternative Health Supplement. Persons could report that sample children treated colitis or frequent diarrhea by 15 of those methods. (The omitted alternative treatment is prayer, which was included as a treatment for specific health problems in the 2002 survey only, when just sample adults were asked about their use of alternative and complementary medicine. See PRASELFEV for more information.) Analysts interested in the treatment of colitis or frequent diarrhea by other alternative therapies should see EHTYR for the full list of alternative medicine treatments and a summary of other energy healing-related questions, as well as definitions.
