Do you know about Medical Insurance companies and plans that fully cover alternative medicine such as Osteopathy, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Acupuncture, and Kinesiology? (This last one is the furthest from mainstream and I doubt any medical insurance company recognizes it).

Thank you!

Kind regards
