The search for health and well-being is intrinsic to the human being.In addition to conventional or allopathic medicine, there are numerous therapeutic modalities considered part of Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM).In Brazil, these therapies are called Complementary and Integrative Practices (CIP), defined by Ministry of Health Ordinance No. 971 of May 3, 2006.Although widely used with support from the World Health Organization, there is a lack of reference terminological materials for translators on this topic.Thus, we seek to develop a Brazilian Portuguese/British English bilingual glossary of this area of expertise, by compiling comparable corpora in both languages, choosing representative texts on this topic.In order to carry out this work, we used as theoretical references Corpus Linguistics and Bilingual Terminology.As a computational tool we used WordSmith Tools.After the compilation of corpora, using academic articles, books, texts of institutional websites and legislation, we examined the language used in the area of CIP and extracted the related terms to the research through a quantitative and qualitative analysis.We verified the occurrence of simple terms, compound terms, complex terms and acronyms.Next, we searched for English equivalents of the selected terms.Not all of the equivalents were found in the English corpus, so we performed a new search using the web as a corpus.Then, we explained the proposed macrostructure and microstructure and presented the first version of the glossary, with examples of contexts of authentic use in both languages.We also proposed to seek equivalents in English for a therapy developed in Brazil whose terminology had not yet been translated into English.Alchemy based flower essences therapy was chosen, from which we developed a corpus, extracted the most representative terms and searched for equivalents in English through a one-on-one research.We developed an illustrated glossary of plants used in the production of the flower essences used in this therapy.We hope to contribute an initial reference material to translators in the area of CIP, as well as encouraging the development of new research on this specialized language
