I do know people with COPD who regularly see an acupunturist. They believe it helps them.
I went to a presentation by a hypnotherapist and it was pretty amazing and totally legit. She has found really good success in helping people stop smoking in particular. I wish I had gone to her to stop smoking ,but apparently I wasn't ready. I am thinking of going if would help me have less anxiety and panic, which is brought on by what's happening in my brain. Just believing it doesn't have to happen all the time might help with the triggers. Putting that here makes me think I really should at least try it.
