Intuitives help their clients reach a better understanding of their characters, past influences and future prospects. Practitioners may choose to use various forms of divination (tarot, astrology, numerology) in their work or they may rely on natural psychic talents. Medical intuitives focus on health issues affecting the client.

In alternative medicine, a Medical Intuitive is a person who feels that they have learned to apply their intuition to finding the cause of a condition. There are medical professionals, health care workers, scientists and others who are skeptical of such abilities and probably just as many who favor and use their services.
