Research Notes on COPD Alternative Treatments
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) symptoms can be relieved by medications and pulmonary rehabilitation; however, this disease cannot be cured. There are alternative therapies available to relieve COPD symptoms. These include diet and nutritional supplements; herbal medicines; water, or hydrotherapy; acupressure and acupuncture; aromatherapy; and yoga. It is important to consult a physician prior to adopting alternative therapies to prevent adverse reactions.
