Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Both of these therapies involve stimulation of specific points along meridians, activating the body's healing energy. Acupuncture is a popular pain relief strategy practiced in the United States today.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Chamomile can cause birth defects and abortion. The woman should be cautioned not to take it. She should also be provided with other suggestions to promote sleep and advised not to take any over-the-counter medications, herbals, etc., without first consulting her health care provider.
