4. Another alternative medicines.
-Traditional Chinese Medicine

Traditional Chinese medicine is a complete system of healing that dates back to 200 B.C.
In the TCM view, the body is a delicate balance of two opposing and inseparable forces: yin and yang.
TCM practitioners typically use herbs, acupuncture, and massage to help the body back into harmony.
-Ayurvedic medicine.

Ayurveda, which literally means "the science of life," is a natural healing system developed in India.
It is a system that places equal emphasis on the body, mind, and spirit, and strives to restore the innate harmony of the individual.
Ayurvedic treatments include diet, exercise, meditation, herbs, massage, exposure to sunlight, and controlled breathing.
-Naturopathy.

Naturopathy is a system of healing, originating from Europe, that views disease as a manifestation of alterations in the processes by which the body naturally heals itself.
The core modalities supporting these principles include diet modification and nutritional supplements, herbal medicine, acupuncture and Chinese medicine, hydrotherapy, massage and joint manipulation, and lifestyle counseling. Also allows for the use of some, if not all, pharmaceuticals that medical doctors can use. Treatment protocols combine what the practitioner deems to be the most suitable therapies for the individual patient.

Summary

While whole medical systems differ in their philosophical approaches to the prevention and treatment of disease, they share a number of common elements. These systems are based on the belief that one's body has the power to heal itself. Healing often involves mixing multiple techniques that involve the mind, body, and spirit. Treatment is often individualized and dependent on the presenting symptoms.
There is not scientific evidence about the utility of this treatments, but there's also studies with positve results.
The choice is in your hands.

They slept first for four hours, then woke for one or two hours before falling into a second four-hour sleep.
Later, in 2001, historian Roger Ekirch revealed a wealth of historical evidence that humans used to sleep in two distinct chunks.
During the waking period between sleeps people went to the toilet, smoked tobacco, stayed in bed, read, wrote, and often prayed.
Ekirch believes many sleeping problems may have roots in the human body's natural preference for segmented sleep.
At the end of the 19th century, psychologist Dr. Gregg Jacobs said 'Waking up during the night is part of normal human physiology'.
Jacobs suggests that the waking period between sleeps, could have played an important part in the human capacity to regulate stress naturally.
So the next time you wake up in the middle of the night, relax. Lying awake could be good for you]]> 2019-02-11 17:04:04 UTC https://padlet.com/saletafm/3x4hok91k3q8/wish/329973291 Is teenage plastic surgery on the rise? mavam https://padlet.com/saletafm/3x4hok91k3q8/wish/329985081 In a climate of selfies and social media, doctors report more teenagers are turning to plastic surgeons to help them feel better about themselves.
