Has anybody used alternative medicine and had positive results?

As much as possible I try to use an alternative to the overpriced American healthcare system but I don't think that's what you're asking? Insurance coverage for me and one daughter is just over $1000/month but luckily my employer pays all but $32 of that. The extra costs involved if you actually have to use the insurance are laughable. e.g. prescription medications at over $1,000
No, people have had the genuine benefits a placebo brings, but nothing more, and often at far greater cost than other placebos and going into the pockets of quacks.
Not so much alternative medicine more like alternative TO medicine
Here’s an interesting view

Nice one. It can help for loads of stuff. The one I use doesn’t have a set fee, you just put what you think it’s worth to you in an envelope and stick it in the honesty box.
Reclining chairs, dim lighting and soft music. It’s so relaxing that it’s almost impossible to stay awake even with about 20 needles stuck in yer. She even asks what time you want waking up lol

On a serious note I did some very simple yoga that cured a long standing sports injury after about three days.
I'd been to the doctors and a physio for about six months and it didn't make any improvement with their help.
I still use a bit of what I learnt throughout the year to keep me fit and healthy.
The yoga session only lasted about five minutes for them to teach me what I needed to know

Homeopathy is nonsense and Chinese medicines are actually full of steroids.
