How do I use alternative therapies for anxiety?

Answer 1

Practitioners of homeopathy recommend different remedies depending on what triggers the anxiety. Ayurvedics believe that hurt feelings are physically stored in the body, thus teach a method to release those feelings that create anxiety and depression. Nutritionists recommend foods that raise serotonin levels in your brain, mimicking certain pharmaceuticals. Chinese medicine uses a combination of acupuncture and herbs to lift the spirit.
Specifically, I would recommend acupuncture therapy.
Many people report feeling less stressed after receiving acupuncture therapy. This finding has led researchers to speculate that acupuncture may have some beneficial effect when used to treat anxiety directly. In a study of 55 healthy volunteers, acupuncture applied to a "relaxation" point in the ear led to a greater reduction in anxiety than sham acupuncture (needling inactive points). Acupuncturists treat people with anxiety based on an individualized assessment of the excesses and deficiencies of qi located in various meridians. In the case of anxiety, a qi deficiency is usually detected in the kidney or spleen meridians. In addition to performing needling techniques, acupuncturists may also employ lifestyle and breathing techniques as well as herbal and dietary therapy.
Good luck to you!

You should consider using marijuana as an alternative to the pills you may be prescribed if you live in a state where it is legal. Many studies have proven that marijuana is beneficial in relieving symptoms associated with anxiety and depression. I live in California and I use marijuana legally for my anxiety and migraines and it helps me a lot more than any prescription my doctor has ever prescribed and with much less side effects.
