Alternative Treatment is the term used for treatment instead of conventional treatment. Complementary Treatment is used in addition to conventional treatment. Most experts do NOT recommend alternative treatment, but DO recommend complementary methods.

Some complementary methods include meditation, hypnosis, imagery, prayer and spirituality, acupuncture and/or acupressure, and massage.

In addition, seeking advice in good eating habits, and complementary diet is recommended.

Don't be afraid to discuss Complementary methods you may be trying with your doctor. He can be a great advocate and expert in other ways of helping you to get help. Some insurance providers cover these treatments. Read through your policy, or contact the company for more information about what is covered.
