I was interested to read recently that the company who make Power Balance bands were forced to admit that there was no credible scientific evidence to support their claims.

The need for more uncertainty in therapy
I was disturbed recently by a long conversation with a friend who had recently completed his qualification in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.
