Alternative medicine: Try alternative medicine approaches such as meditation, yoga, hypnosis, acupuncture, and massage therapy to name a few. There are many options available, and its a bit of trial and error. Watch out for any practitioner that says they can cure everything - even MD's. best of luck. Hope this helps!
