Wild Card's description: 

Intense and highly funded research in the field of monastery medicine lead to the introduction of an officially approved medical treatment called “Traditional European Medicine” in all European member states.

This “new” treatment is fully accepted by society and broadly recognised as an effective supplementary to conventional medicine.
