'''Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM)''' is a common phrase to describe a group of medical approaches that are (partially) outside [[Mainstream medicine|mainstream]], [[conventional medicine]] and are named [[Complementary medicine|complementary]] or [[alternative medicine]]. In recent years, several definitions of CAM have been suggested. The [[CAMbrella]] project recently defined CAM as follows:<ref>{{Cite|title=CAM 2020; The contribution of Complementary Medicine to sustainable healthcare in Europe|publisher=[[EUROCAM]]}}</ref><blockquote>CAM, as utilised by European citizens, represents a variety of different [[Medical system|medical systems]] and therapies based on the knowledge, skills and practices derived from theories, philosophies and experiences used to maintain and improve [[health]], as well as to [[Prevention|prevent]], [[diagnose]], relieve or treat [[Physical illness|physical]] and [[Mental illness|mental illnesses]]. CAM therapies are mainly used outside conventional health care, but in many countries some therapies are being adopted or adapted by conventional healthcare.<ref>{{Cite|first=K|last=Von Ammon|date=2012|title=Final Report of CAMbrella Work Package 5|chapter=Health technology Assessment (HTA) and a map of CAM provision in the EU.|url=https://phaidra.univie.ac.at/detail_object/o:300096}}</ref></blockquote>
